Hi david,
Thanks for your time.
I could not find the HP Mobile Data Protection Sensor entry in the device manager..
However right clicking on the accelerometer.inf and chosing install did the trick. After booting the messege was gone, at least for now.
I notice in device manager a unknown device under other devices that was with a warning flag. I could found out that it was related with HP safe guard something but not sure. Now it is not there.
I don't know if I should instal safeguard again or not since now I do not have the error...
Thanks

Hi,
You're welcome 
There's no need to run the DriveGuard installer now as the driver will have installed via the inf.
All the best,
