Since it is giving you an error then the problem is there is an entry for it in the registry that is pointing to a driver that no longer exists, hence the error.
Regardless of your technical expertise, the easiest and most thorough method would be to use one of my favorite freeware utilities called AutoRuns (formerly SysInternals but owned by the Big Cheese):
Autoruns for Windows
Download and then unzip the file, you can run it from anywhere.
Once you unzipped, double-click on
autoruns.exe to run the program.
Click YES/OK at the agreement screen if it comes up.
Afterward, the program will initiate the scan, press the Escape key to cancel the scan. On top menu bar, click OPTIONS then select/check "Hide Microsoft and Windows Entries" option. Then press F5 to re-initiate the scan.
The final list will be much shorter and easier to go through.
What you are ultimately looking for are the entries with "File not found" under the "Image Path" column. These are the ones you will need to get rid of.

They might be under a few different locations so take your time and carefully go through the list. Once you spot one, start by unchecking its box first which disables the entry. If it was indeed the culprit then later you could re-run autoruns and delete that entry by right-click > delete > Yes.
