Every time I start up my computer, the Found New Hardware Wizard pops up four different times, even though I don't have any new hardware attached to the computer. At one point it was saying that I had some kind of Intel Viewer or something, so I deleted it in the device manager, now it just says "unknown" for the hardware that it wants to intall. Any suggestions?

Do you check for and remove Spyware ??
Spyware can do all sort of things.
Spyware info.from Microsoft
Virus and Spyware scans work better in Windows Safe-Mode.

OR
Try System Restore- back to a date that things were better.

Using System Restore too many times can cause
more harm than good. After doing a restore
that does not fix a problem, then UNDO the
Restoration, and try another restore point, or
just do the UNDO.

If you are looking for help with hardware problems it is very important that you have accurate information.

This is not accurate information.
At one point it was saying that I had some kind of Intel Viewer or something

When you have a problem take the time to write down the accurately what the pop window is say displacing. Otherwise it is very hard to analyze a problem.
