Which driver?

After coming back from lunch today I was greeted with this dialog on my fully patched 2008 Server:


Huh? Which driver is it complaining about? I even clicked the "See details" linklabel, but it doesn't give any more relevant information?

Who designed this dialog? Why didn't anyone of the dialog-approving-committee over at Redmond raise their hand and say "Shouldn't we show the name of the driver?".

Sometimes I don't get people...

Fortunately I remember starting installation of VMWare Server before going to lunch, so I assume it is a VMWare network driver it is trying to install. I can't be sure, but I'm taking my chances.

I'll just click the "Install this driver software anyway" - otherwise known as the "I want to work today button".
