3. How to Identify the Intel Chipset
If you are unsure which Intel chipset is located in your computer, you will need to look at the
motherboard for the chipset markings.
Note: Some system manufacturers may void your warranty if you open the case. Check with
the manufacturer if you have any concerns about this before proceeding.
Caution: Make sure you disconnect the power before opening the case. Avoid touching any of
the components inside the system.
Intel® 800 series chipsets are comprised of multiple components. The key items to identify are
the I/O Controller Hub (ICH), Memory Controller Hub (MCH), Graphics Memory Controller Hub
(GMCH), and Firmware Hub (FWH) components. The tables below show the combinations that
make up the various Intel chipsets that are supported by the Intel® Ultra ATA Storage Driver:
