I have had this problem with two Linksys driver disks in the past. Since the install doesn't complete, the computer doesn't realize that some of the driver files are incomplete. Download the latest driver from the manufacturers site and save it to a disk. I found that by going to network properties and removing every service associated with the card allowed me to reinstall the driver from a known good disk. Go to Start, settings, network connections, and llok for any installed connection. (Not network setup wizard or new connection wizard) If there is a connection installed, click on it and a two tab folder should open. At the bottom is a "properties" button. When you clcik on that, a four tab folder opens with the services installed list showing. Click on each one and delete until everything is removed. Then try removing the card and reinstalling so that new hardware wizard will find the card. Use the new disk to install the drivers. Hope that works.
