GPUs without NVIDIA drivers installed are not recognized

If you for example DDU to do a clean install of GPU drivers then TNUC will not identify any GPU(s) as NVIDIA. This is because it uses the GPU name which is "Generic Driver" if you have no driver installed.

I have to somehow lookup the GPU name from device and vendor ID with online database. There is already public databases:

Only thing I know of is this site, which you may be aware of. It hasn't been updated in a while it seems. Not sure how they're getting the data but I'll look into it some time.

There's also this but seems like it isn't automated. Would be nice if there was an official source for this stuff.

This might work https://pci-ids.ucw.cz/v2.2/pci.ids

Hey Guys, is this the same issue? I recently updated my game ready drivers through nvidia (through the standard installer), but now Tiny thinks I don't have an nvidia driver after restart? I also tried reinstalling the same driver as a 'Clean Install' option in the nvidia installer...still no luck unfortunately.
