Emu XL-7 & MP-7 User's Group

I've been trying all day to get the xl7 installed w/ usb support to no
avail.  XP automatically "installs" the xl7 when I plug it in via usb
but when I go to device manager it is listed as an unknown device. 
When i go to the properties of the unknown device it says that no
drivers are installed, so I click update drivers and select the ones
on cd but then windows tells me that the drivers are not as good as
the ones already installed!!!
Dammit the properties told me there were no drivers installed!!

WTF!!

Anyone else have this problem?
I've tried getting windows to not recognize and auto install the
machine but no luck.
