Default Stop hardware wizard


I have a Howtek medical film digitizer attached to Dell presicion running
windows XP. The digitizer attaches to an Adaptec AHA2930cu PCI SCSI card.
There are no windows drivers for the scanner which is controlled via the
scanning software. The detected new hardware wizard continually pops up but
there being no drivers or inf file it can go nowhere. The computer is not
connected to the internet and the path in the wizard leading to microsoft
when there are no drivers can't be taken. It then starts all over again. I
have to leave it uncompleted on the desktop to stop in from coming back.

I have disabled the device in hardware manager (it shows up under "other")
but this did not do the trick. Are there any other settings or registry
entries I can make to stop this activity?

Perhaps an entry that tells XP it is correctly installed.

Any help would be appreciated.....iternet popups are playthings next to this
demon.

Peter
