Not sure if this belongs in networking or enterprise hardware section ?

After running a network vulnerability scan it has failed with the following item

Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Unsupported Installation Detection.


The thing is, I am not running Server 2003 anywhere.
The router is a draytek 2850 updated to latest firmware
the server is a Dell Poweredge R720, running hyper-v 2012, VMs are mainly server 2012, with a couple running on server 2008 R2

Machines that might be switched on and connected to the network are running a mix of desktop OSes from W7 onwards.
Last scan I ran I switched off all desktop machines "just in case"

Any ideas what could cause this ?
 
I rang the company, they don't really have an answer themselves, other than its a likely false positive, picking up a signature form another OS that is identifying as a 2003 Server signature.

Not really that helpful to be honest.
 
Really small building, I know everything that is plugged in to the network

VLAN1 - 1 device (not a PC)
VLAN2 - server and 3 desktops (W10/W7) + VOIP Phone
VLAN3 - seperate live network, only thing connected at the time of the scan was a MAC which was most likely in standby
