How to uninstall recent patches?

I installed the patches from earlier this week and now find
that my RealOne player does not display video anymore.
I want to uninstall them to see which patch, if any, affected
its performance. When I look in Add/Remove, the KB's
listed do not match the KB's shown in the patch file names.


The file names are:
Windows2000-KB828741-x86-ENU.EXE
Windows2000-KB835732-x86-ENU.EXE

If they are listed in Add/Remove, which is which?

Look for their corresponding reference in the Add/Remove
Programs applet in Control Panel. Uninstall is possible if
an uninstall folder had been created at the time of their
installation. Look for something like this: Windows Hotfix,
KBXXXXXX, where XXXXXX is the KB reference number.

Thanks, they were different than most of the earlier 'hotfixes'.
Matching up the folders helped me find the right ones....
