When I've had this happen, it has turned out to be something internal (not attached hardware), like the sensor you mentioned.
If you google search "how to identify unknown device" or something similar, you'll get many results to choose from on how to identify that device through Device Manager.
A less precise (quicker?) route I've used is visually scan through Device Manager and try to notice what named device is missing. (e.g.: bluetooth, sound device, graphics, etc.). Then you can just search for that devices driver. Again, less precise.

It would help if you would tell us what section of device manager the error is showing.
