Woot! 
got it! /happydance
I just hope the next few days doesn't find me back here saying I only
thought I had it.
So... the uninstallers for the Axiom drivers weren't deleting the actual drivers from Windows/System32/Drivers... neither, does it seem, that device manager was removing them when I answered Yes to removing the drivers when uninstalling the device. So, I uninstalled the devices in Device Manager and checked for hidden devices, then uninstalled the drivers from Add Remove Programs and then deleted the drivers manually from the drivers path... so what's working now is my Air49 with Drivers from M-Audio installed (and they have to be installed to prevent an unknown device (which I assume is Hypercontrol)), and no drivers from M-Audio installed for the 25, even tho M-Audio said I needed them for this to work... pfft... anyhow...
Yay!
Thanks everyone for helping, I really appreciate it, if it wasn't for you all I probly would have given up a week ago.
