Install graphics card hardware drivers via remote desktop in Windows 7

Question

I come across the same problem over and over. I working on computer that is remote and it is missing graphics card drivers. Just has some default drivers that have limited resolution.

I would like to install program that will read the chipset on graphics card and tell me the values so I can go on manufacturer website and download the appropriate drivers.

Windows 7 or Windows XP application would do, if you know about any.

And CPUZ is giving this:

And Belarc Advisor is no better.

Solution

Try GPU-Z instead, or Belarc Advisor

Sorry @Mat Banik that was my best guess... You should probably include what you have tried in the question so you don't get more answers like this.
