It's a legacy chipset - they will be integrated into Windows 7.

Oh ok thanks

Translation - It's such an old chipset that Microsoft had plenty of time to put them into Windows 7. It's only chipsets created after the OS launch that usually require a separate download.

Batigol79,

Prior to migrating to Windows 7 did you run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor? To determine if your current computer configuration will be compatible with Windows 7 please go to the following link: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-7/get/upgrade-advisor.aspx

Another resource to verify compatibility is available at the Microsoft Windows 7 Compatibility Center located at the following link: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-7/en-us/default.aspx
