Yamimi​  This isn't a problem you need to fix.  You can simply change your graphics settings to whatever you want to use without any negative effects.  The GPU recognition only tells the game which settings to use by default.

If you do want to get your GPU recognized, I need the next couple lines of Config.log after the two you've posted so I can see the device ID.
