1.6.1
Intel G41 Graphics Subsystem
The Intel G41 Express chipset contains two separate, mutually exclusive graphics
options.
Either the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator X4500 (Intel GMA X4500)
graphics controller (contained within the 82G41 GMCH) is used, or a PCI graphics card
can be used.
When a PCI graphics card is installed, the Intel GMA X4500 graphics
controller is disabled.
