The installer puts nothing in the windows registry. Check the my.ini configuration file and update the paths for your new mysql installation.

Check which mysql server is installed as a service by going to Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Services -> Mysql and view properties for mysql. If the wrong mysql is installed, run the mysql executable as listed in the properties window with -remove as the first argument.

Example:
c:\program files\ez systems\mysql\mysqld-nt.exe -remove

This will remove mysql as a service. Now you can install a other version of mysql if you want.

It is not however recommended to use the installer for more than just testing or use the installer if you already have apache/mysql installed
