Looking at when I purchased it.
Tried to load the Catalyst driver and it caused many problems. Went to AMD
site to check the latest driver and found out that their site basically said
it was not supported and go replace video card with newer model.
ATI Radeon HD 3000 is what is stated in the data sheet.
In 2012 there was an article about dropping support in Catalyst for this
video processor.

I wish I had done some more research before purchasing the board. My error
in expecting ATI long term support to be as good as nVidia at the time.
Radeon HD 3000 series (R600 series) is well supported by the open source
"radeon" driver.
