Clean up Config panel

Hi,
I have probably deleted some files/keys related to a modem install. Now I cannot desinstall or reinstall same modem, is there a utility that would check and delete every thing related to a specific install even if not complete (the modem appears in the config panel but not in the install/desinstall list). After that clean up process I could probably restart a clean install.
