Recently while playing EU 2 (version 1.08) I decided to install the EEP update to it. That did'nt work properly (1520 would start, but 1419 would'nt) so I removed it. Only I was having problems with EU II after that, so I decided to uninstall it and wipe it clean from my HD and then re-install.
Only EVERY SINGLE TIME I try to install from my CD it tells me the game is allready installed!
I'm sorry, I checked through that post you linked to and I don't see ANYTHING about clearing the registry, much less step by step instructions (which I would need).
This info applies to Windows 9x or ME. It hasn't been verified with Windows 2000 or Windows XP but it should be the same.

You have to manually delete a key in your registry. You do that by starting regedit (Start => Run => regedit => Enter) and navigate to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Paradox Entertainment" and delete the Europa Universalis key. It looks like a folder in regedit.(If you have applied more than one Patch then there might be more than one key)
