Re: Program cancelled during installation yet appears in All Programs

Because its unsigned doesnt neccessarily mean it will screw your sys. It
simply means the supplier hasnt paid MS pots of dosh to get it signed, hence
the sys warning.

I am running Win XP SP2 on an HP Pavilion DV8000 laptop.

I have just tried to install a dirt cheap web cam that I got for
christmas,
I knew it was going to be trouble before I started. It is a Clas Ohlson
(Swedish shop own brand) Model TWC-30AP.

Basically while trying to install the drivers and some preliminary
software
Windows threw up the message that this software did not have a Windows
Logo
certificate approval (or something). I therefore took Windows advice and
cancelled the installation.

However now when I go "Start-All Programs" I have something called "PC VGA
Camer@". There are 2 sub options "AmCap" and "Uninstall". What concerns
me
is that Uninstall does nothing. The Installsheild wizard pops up briefly,
but doesn't actually remove this. I cannot find the item to remove from
the
Control Panel-Add Remove Hardware section. I have even tried reverting to
the last 2 points in System Restore which did nothing as it said nothing
had
changed.

Yet I can see this program option available. How do I remove it all so
that
it will not stuff up Windows as was hinted at.

Thanks for your help and best wishes over the festive season.
