Sitecore 7.2 Uninstall: Failed to Install Performance Counters

I'm trying to uninstall a sitecore project. It still shows up in the installed programs and when I try to remove it I get the following error message: Failed to install performance counters. (-2147024894). When I try to install using the name of the removed program I get an error saying that it could not open the ldf file for attach. It's looking for the ldf file in Database\MDF.

Regarding deleting registry keys, I also had to delete some keys located under here: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Installer\Products

Doing a "find" for the pesky Sitecore instance names helped me find this location.

Have you tried deleting the registry key containing the information about the previously installed instance under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Sitecore CMS.
