You should refer to the motherboard manual or search the model number online. Usually it is not hard to find which chips the motherboard is using.

If you don't know the exact mobo model, download CPU-Z. It should give you the make and model of the mobo. Then go to the manufacturer's web site. If it's somethink like RealTek, you can try their site or do a search.

The BIOS may also give indication of what it is as well.

THere are various other utilities out there as well.

He's a spammer guys, his question has nothing to do with 3D and is the exact copy of one already posted in several other forums (answers.yahoo, myhpmini, fireballtech, planetz, etc.).

This is pretty common (and I suspected as much) but I always like to give people the benefit of the doubt. It was, at least, posted in the correct section.

When I see people asking general questions that have nothing to do with 3D in particular, I generally copy&paste their question in google, this way I know rapidely if it's spam or not. Benefit of doubt is a nice approach, but spam is such a pain that it's good to identify it quickly to not have the forum be polluted too much.
