Vista install blocked by Maxtor in Registry

How can I delete Maxtor OneTouch III registry entries so my Vista Upgrade
won't be blocked? Nothing is in Add/Remove nor in Start. A search of the
registry reveals a few entries. There are no Maxtor hardware devices
finstalled. Registry entries are legacy from helping another Maxtor user
format the external drive.

Can I merely delete all Maxtor references in the registry and save?

Error preventing install:
Close Windows installation and contact the device manufacturer for updated
driver software for these devices:
SCSI and RAID controllers: Maxtor 7L250S0
