The Intel Chipset Identification Utility provides an easy way to identify the specific Intel chipset that is located on your motherboard. This information can be used to determine if your system supports software such as the Intel Application Accelerator, Intel Chipset Software Installation Utility, or Intel's Graphics Drivers.

Note: This utility will only identify your Intel chipset, not your Intel processor. To identify what type of Intel processor you have, such as the Pentium III processor, Pentium 4 processor, or Intel Celeron processor, download the Intel Processor Frequency ID Utility.

To run the Intel Chipset Identification Utility, simply download the file and run it. The utility is a standalone program with no installer package so it will not create any shortcuts on the Start menu. The file can be left on your system if desired or simply deleted after it is no longer required. The Intel Chipset Identification Utility is approximately 124KB in size and should easily fit on a floppy diskette, if desired.

If certain Intel chipset components are not detected by the Intel Chipset Identification Utility, an update button will appear. Clicking the update button will cause the utility to check Intel's web site (if an Internet connection is detected) to determine if a newer version is available.

Here is a complete list of supported chipsets with this version.
