I assume you are referring to VMware Workstation or Player!?
Anyway, please double check the specific registry setting mentioned in VMware KB: Installing VMware Workstation or VMware Tools fails with the error: 1327 or 1606. If all the settings seem to be correct, take a look at VMware KB: Cleaning up after an incomplete uninstallation on a Windows host for the steps to manually clean up the unsuccessful uninstallation.
