If you're not sure what type of video hardware your computer has, you can easily find the information in System Profiler. To view card information in System Profiler:
- From the Apple menu, choose About This Mac.
- Click More Info.
- Click PCI/AGP Cards (under Hardware).
Your computer's card chipset name appears under the Card column.

Once you've found the chipset name, locate it in the table below to find out the card name. (In our example, we used the table to find that our chipset name, "R350," is an ATI Radeon 9800 Pro.)
This table lists the supported graphic cards and the chipset names as they appear in System Profiler.
