VMware Workstation 9 on Windows 8

I need some help.  I am currently attempting to install VMware Workstation 9 on my PC that is currently running Windows 8 Pro.  I previously had Microsoft HyperV installed instead.  I have removed the HypverV feature through the Control Panel.  However, when I attempt to install VMware, I get an error that states its unable to install on a machine that is running HyperV.  I have removed all my VHD's and any files I can find associated with HyperV, but I still get the error.  Any suggestions?

Thanks

FIXED:  I ran the command "dism.exe /Online /Disable-Feature:Microsoft-Hyper-V", restarted and was able to install VMware.
