Ok - I left out a step. Try installing it again and when you get to that
last window (cannot continue the hardware update wizard or something like
that) there should be a box to tick "Do not show this window again". This
happened to me a couple weeks ago when I installed a Dell USB keyboard and
it asked me to install the driver for it but the keyboard worked just fine.
After numerous attempts to install the driver, I finally saw that little box
and decided to check it. When I rebooted the computer it no longer
appeared.
Regards,
Wy
