- Shutdowm all services
- physically delete all oracle directories ( if no database in it )
- delete all environment variables
- delete all Oracle services manually from NT registry
- restart machine and install new Oracle

I was also facing the same problem, I tried some tips I got from other members like using oradim80.exe to remove SID.You can try this.
