Uninstall from command-line using installshield

Is there any way of being able to force through an uninstall rather than an upgrade on InstallSheild?

I currently have a Setup.exe and a MSI file but everyime I attemp the uninstall using the pre-recorded ISS if my install is older than the current version it first upgrades and If I run the same file again then it uninstalls,

now im wondering if there is a way where I could force it to uninsatll --- this is what I have currently 

...\setup.exe"  /x /s /f1C:\Remove.iss

Instead of using the setup.exe you've built, why not use the one cached on the machine? Check the Uninstall key for details (like path) and you might still be able to mix in your /s /f1C:\Remove.iss if the removal pages are similar enough.
