I'm getting a weird problem where whenever I try to play a skirmish or a game over the network, I can't see the minimap of the map that I've selected and I can't change anything or see anything in the player slots: I can't open/close/add computer/etc. on any of the slots. Also the start button is missing. The whole interface is messed up.

I seem to be able to play the campaign, though.

This issue started when I installed FAF. I know that FAF doesn't mess with anything in the Forged Alliance folder, but the game was working not even an hour before I installed FAF, and it was doing this right after, so it's important to note.

I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, I've tried uninstalling FAF, I've tried deleting all traces of GPG/SupCom/Forged Alliance from my computer and then reinstalling, the same problem persists. I'm totally stumped, and I've never heard of anyone else having this type of problem. Obviously it doesn't have anything to do with the game folder itself.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

OS: Windows 7 64 bit
CPU: Intel Core i5 quad-core
RAM: 6 GB
GPU: AMD Radeon HD 6650

Moved to tech support.
Have you considered contacting the FAF team? If it is indeed related to installing FAF this might have happened before.

FAF installs some permanent mods, doesn't it? The issues described are definitely caused by something like that.

Thanks for the move. Realized I was in the wrong place after I posted.

No, I've never used any mods, so I didn't have any at the time the problems started. I think contacting the FAF team is probably a good idea. I would think, though, that uninstalling both FAF and SupCom/FA would get rid of anything FAF might have done.

When you cleared everything, did you include the GPG\FA Folder in My Documents?

Yeah, I ran a search, so I'm fairly certain I got everything. I can double-check though.
