Application SQL Server installing problems

Hello Folks,
Managed to loose my SQL Server while uninstalling application and now the
server doesn't get installed while trying to run the application installer
again. Is there any way to locate traces of the old installation anyhow...
or what could be the case.
Is it possible to trace down for example C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL
Server\80\Tools\Binn\sqlmangr.exe for example if the registry settings have
somehow been vanished?
After the uninstallation and regcleaning traces of SQL were hanging still
for example in the XP Home Services prompt.
Thanks

While editing values used, by Murphy, Regedit in the first faze. Is there
anything that could be done anymore or do I have to reinstall XP again.
Forgot to tell you that the first problems started after running repair
installation of XP. SQL just quit responding.
Best Regards!

|||Not sure what you are saying. Do you want to remove all traces of SQL Server so you can install SQL
Server again? If so, the link I posted should help you.

|||Yes Tibor, and Thank You!
"Haste takes pleasure out of everything"! like they say. Respectivly, I
posted my question without checking all details...
Got server running after removing all known instances of the SQL and
reinstalling the application. I'm happy with the result that has bothered me
a lot during the last weeks.
Thanks' for your help once more! Even the software supplier couldn't help
with this issue even they got all info needed. (And this "Pineapple" company
should have a good customer support)!
