JRE 1.5 Installation Error

When I attempted to update the JRE from 1.3.1 to 1.5 on my Win XP
machine, the installer stalled midway through and I aborted it. Now
when I try to reinstall 1.5, I get a J2SE Runtime Environment
Installation error stating that "You already have this version of the
JRE installed. Please uninstall the product through the Add/Remove
Programs utility before reinstalling. The only entry under Add/Remove
is for JRE 1.3.1.

How do I clean up the registry entries or other instances of the failed
install so that the reinstall will succeed?

Thanks in advance.
