Some suggestions..
. you should still be able to force installation via manually installing
the driver with the 'have disk' option.
. delete all the oem*.[ip]nf files that are for the citrix drivers (from
c:windowsinf)
. search the registry (currentcontrolset) for any reference to xen and
delete it, but be careful. Windows must be remembering the deviceID
My GPLPV drivers enumerate devices as eg xenvbd768, xenvif0. Citrix
drivers must be doing the same. I would if I should enumerate them with
a slightly different prefix..
