What are the specs of your computer?
Make / Model or the specs on the Motherboard (Make and Model)

To find the version you have:
Open the Device Manager
Open the Display Adapter
Right click on the Display Adapter (Sg3 Unichrome)
Click on the Drver Tab It should post the version installed

The card is integrated into the motherboard, so most likely the Ram the card uses must be set in the BIOS

This is by no means a gaming card.

motherboard is a pcchip p23g v3.0
and graphics adapter is integrated via/sg3 unichrome pro igp

Make sure the power supply can handle the graphics card you are going to install.
Nowadays a 450W is on the low end of the scale.

You are limited to what you can install for a "new" Video card

Quote:

AGP Slots 1 x AGP 4X / 8X
PCI Express x16 None
PCI Slots 3

As far as the driver, the latest one from VIA is HERE
