How to uninstall program from command line

Hi.
I have WIN2000 SP4. When I installed the SP4, it appears
to have a conflict with old Iomega drivers. I am having
trouble even getting the computer to boot up. I am
thinking that if I can uninstall the iomega programs in
safe mode with command line (which I can sometimes get
into) that I may be able to boot in the normal safe mode.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

TIA.

I don't know if this would work in a command-line only safe mode, but you
can get the uninstall command from the registry at

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Currentversion\Uninstall\[name of
application]\UninstallString
If you see QuietUninstalString, that would be the one I'd try first, but not
all applications have a QuietUninstallString

You can export the registry (in administrator account)
and then just delete your unwanted data,
and dump back the registry, but keep the exported one,
so you still have a backup.

Sometimes if the application you are looking for is not listed under HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Currentversion\Uninstall\[name of
application]\UninstallString you can find them straight under HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Currentversion\Uninstall\ with example like {350C97B0-3D7C-4EE8-BAA9-00BCB3D54227}

What I'm guessing is if you have NoRemove and NoRemoveInitialValue set to 1 then you can't uninstall. So the two keys might have to be changed to 0(guessing. Be careful while doing so).
