Try manually uninstalling as per the instructions here and then try install
Ok so I manually uninstalled it and that went all fine, but now it won't reinstall? I pressed install and it loaded all the way, but when I clicked it again it it just said 'Install' again...

Are you using a disc or download?
If disc, I would suggest trying to download
- download Origin client ( http://origin.com/download )
- go to your My Games
- find your games there (or if they're not registered, register them by going to Redeem Product Code under Origin option menu)
- Download
So I have a disc and origin - what's happening is that it's installing from the disc but then just says 'download' instead of play. But as I said, it won't download.
