ok, I knew that anti blaxx shit would fuck me. Somehow some drivers got corrupted after I installed anti blaxx for motogp3. So I tried to uninstall daemon tools, but it didnt uninstall all the way and I can't install it because I get this message: "Some driver had incvalid names or confilcts with other file or services on the system. Please choose other driver names or make sure you have rebooted after removal of software using same names." I've rebooted, so im guessing theres still traces of daemon tools left, only I don't know where, or what files to delete. Also in My Computer, 4 virtual disk drives show up, thats how I know that Daemon tools is not fully uninstalled.

Can anyone help me out here?

Open device manager, expand the System Devices section and delete Plug and Play BIOS Extension.

Expand the SCSI and RAID controllers section and remove the d-tools controller (usually named D34/PRT SCSI Controller).

Reboot. Reinstall Daemon Tools.

In my Device Manager, under System Devices, there is nothing that says Plug and Play BIOS Extension. There is "Plug and Play Software Device Enumerator" is that the same? Also, I do not have a section called SCSI/RAID controllers in my Device Manager...so I couldn't find d34/prt. Im using WinXP Pro if that makes a difference.

Just head on over to the official D-Tools site, click on their forum and check the Common Problems and Solutions section, the sticky right at the top will tell you what you need to do.

registry mechanic would have removed the registry items then a re-install wouldve been possible.
