I have Visual C# Express installed on my PC (for XNA development back when that was required) and I can't uninstall it (it can't find one of the .msi files). I'd like to reinstall it so I can then remove it but I can't find the installer.
Any idea where I can re-download the VC# Express 2005 installer? I've looked all over Microsoft's web site but everything points back to the 2008 versions. I've found some installers online but the sites are dubious freeware sites.
I've had a similar problem, and it was a royal pain in the somewhere to totally remove VS2005.
The installation CD doesn't help, since your installation is already screwed up.
I finally found this article that made it possible : How to remove Visual Studio 2005.
Good luck.

The direct download link is http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=51411&clcid=0x409
If you have access to MSDN (through school, work, or a personal account), you should be able to download it again. I know I can get VS2005 Express Editions through MSDNAA.
