Can you double check if that is youre graphic chip?

I think that is youre chipset:

Chipset • ATI Radeon® XPRESS 200 Chipset-HyperTransport connection to AMD K8 Athlon 64 processor -8 or 16 bit control/address. data transfer both directions -800/400/200MHz "Double Data Rate" operation both direction-PCI Express x16 Graphic Interface -On-board Graphic shared up to 128MB-Graphic Integrated
