Try starting safe mode and remove the hardware from Device Manager
To display hidden devices, non-Plug and Play devices, and devices not
attached to the computer (commonly known as "ghosted" or "phantom" devices)
Save the following two lines as a file then execute.
--------------------------setdev.bat---------------------
set DEVMGR_SHOW_NONPRESENT_DEVICES=1
start devmgmt.msc
---------------------------------------------------------
Then, View|Show Hidden Devices to remove or reconfigure these devices. Do
not edit the registry.
