I am trying to uninstall SQL Server 2008 R2 on a server in which I am trying to reinstall after failure to upgrade.  See earlier post http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/7c8da6f7-8b81-49be-b911-b0e56cf5da00/issue-with-sql-server-instance-not-updating-from-sql-server-2008-to-sql-server-2008-r2

I want to reinstall but I am trying to uninstall SQL Server 2008 R2 and start all over.   Error I get and SQL Server 2008 R2 will  not completely uninstall:

 

TITLE: SQL Server Setup failure.

------------------------------

 

SQL Server Setup has encountered the following error:

Can't uninstall completely

And I still show SQL Server 2008 R2 (64-bit)  Still installed.   I am now concerned about trying to reinstall SQL Server 2008 R2 with parts of SQL Server 2008 R2 still around.   Any ideas on how to completely uninstall after this type of error
