Picked this up in another post:
Under the Startup key, I deleted the
"FactoryPreInstallInProgress"=dword:00000001
or: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\SETUP
I also deleted the entire HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Factory key.
Once I completed these and rebooted, I was able to use the Hardware Wizard,
the event entries did not show up, and in my case, the USB hard drive that I
was attempting to use would mount using plug and play.
