problem with install, but can't uninstall

There is a problem with my SQL server desktop installation. The message says
corrupt or did not install properly & that I shoud uninstall & try again. The
problem is that there is no place to uninstall that i can find. What should I
do? I am using win xp pro sp2 and was trying to install it with business
contact manager. It is not listed in the add/remove programs. I can uninstall
Business contact manager, but not the sql desktop engine.

|||That seemed to have worked. The uninstall error message is gone. I have
reinstalled businss contact manager and now within outlook get the error
message of "mapi was unable to load the information service dccmsp.dll" so
this is not yet working. What else can I do?
Thanks.
