Need some help... Thanks..

I have installed ColdFusion 8 64 bit version onto Windows 2008 Server and am trying to uninstall it, but it won't uninstall. I am using Windows 2008 - Control Panel - Programs and Features area and choose Uninstall. I get an error:
Fatal Application Error
This Application has Unexpetedly Quit, when I click for details I get...

I picked up a copy of iawin32.dll and placed it in the directory where it was not found. (Don't know why the uninstall is even looking for 32 bit when I am on 64 bit o/s with 64 bit ColdFusion).. And now the CF Uninstall window pops up but I get a different error "This Application has Unexpectedly Quit"....

Note that ColdFusion will not start as a service and perhaps this is related, don't know, can't find any info on this.

New error:

I know this is a very old question, but I found this from a Google search. After trying several things I discovered the issue is a Windows compatibility issue. If you go to the root ColdFusion9 folder on your C: drive you'll find an uninstall folder. Open that folder and look for the uninstaller .exe file. Right click and use the troubleshoot compatibility option to run it as Windows 7 and the uninstaller will then work correctly.
