remove exchange 2010

Hello

i have installed exchange 2010 on a virtual machine, and it was connected to the domain and found the users and it semed to work fine until we crashed it. So i decided to start all over and reinstall windows and install exchange again. However now after i have installed the exchange server, it seems that it has found our old exchange 2010 on the list, and keeps prompting me for produkt key (which i didn't type in until i was finished with configuring it), and whatever i do in the console, i can see the new exchange server AND the old exchange server on the list.

how do i get rid of the old exchange server from the list? i thougt since i reinstalled the whole machine, it must be getting the info from the AD, i looked in there under "computers" and found the server and deleted it. But it still appears in exchange console on the list of servers..
