I recently bought a graphics tablet that was Win98
compatible but that had a driver adapted to XP. I tried
to install the tablet on the XP machine but thr wizard had
problems and couldn't find my driver. I have the driver
installed now but I can't get the system to install again
like it did the first time. I accidentaly clicked the "do
not try to automatically install this device again" and
now I can't seem to undo that and have it run through the
process again.

I've tried to do a manual install but can't find graphics
tablets in the list of hardware.

Is there a way I can reset the wizard so it will do the
auto install again?

I'm sorry I have only commiseration to offer. The same thing happened
to me when I was trying to install my cell phone as a modem. I
accidentally clicked (or maybe it was autofilled for me) "do not ask me
to install this device again" and now the install wizard won't come up
at all for that device, and I can't figure out a manual installation or
override. HELP please!

"switch to classic view" on the left hand side. Run Add Hardware wizard.

or

click on start - control panel, switch to classic view by clicking on
"switch to classic view" on the left hand side.
Open the system icon and click on the hardware tab.
Click on the device manager tab and locacte device to be installed, usually
has a yellow triangle next to the item.
Double click the device and then click on the driver tab on the new window
that appears.
Click on the update driver button and follow the on screen instructions.

Hope this is what you are after.
