Hello Sam,
After you install an rpm file, when doing queries, you need to give the package NAME, not the rpm file name.
You can use the rpm file to tell you the package name,
$ rpm -qip RealPlayer10GOLD.rpm
The first thing listed is the package NAME (RealPlayer)
Verify this package is installed,
$ rpm -q RealPlayer RealPlayer-10.0.4.750-20050401
To uninstall RealPlayer (as root), use the package name not the file name:
# rpm -e RealPlayer
Then you can reinstall
# rpm -Uvh RealPlayer10GOLD.rpm
That ought to do it.
