DMI not installed - why?

[Lester Stiefel]

During a fresh install of OS, I installed NIC driver update
for 3Com 3C900 card. IRQ and I/O conflicts resolved.
New notice during install of the utility has me worried. A
popup said that the DMI was not installed on this computer
and the features using this would not be available.
What is DMI, and why isn't that installed?
Is DMI critical to normal operations?

According to the doc file I may not require this here, as
the OS acts as local collection and info store.
