Introduction

Device drivers are required for proper functioning of devices included with computers. Some device driver support
is included with the operating system; however, newer devices frequently require additional device drivers that were
not available when the operating system was introduced. HP packages device drivers in Softpaq format and places
them on an HP Web site for the customers' convenience.
The Intel 915 Express chipset is known by the Intel code name "Grantsdale" and features PCI Express, DDR1 or
DDR2 memory support, support for up to four SATA storage devices, and the next generation Intel integrated
graphics. For more details refer to the Intel Web site.
