Hi Josh

The Intel G45/G43 chipsets do not support Windows 8.1. However, there is a graphics driver available from Microsoft* Windows* Update the will support Windows 8 only. After installing Windows 8 on your system launch Windows Update and install the available updates.

Please see the following Frequently Asked Questions for additional details.
