Not an ATI Radeon XPress 200 motherboard chipset?
I say thee nay to the forums,
1) The eMachines T5048 Desktop PC uses an Intel D102GGC2 motherboard.

2) The motherboard chipset is an ATI Radeon XPress 200.
Uses an ATI Radeon XPress 200 Northbridge chip, and an ATI IXP 450 Southbridge chip.
Information on the Northbridge chip,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_ATI_chipsets#Comparison_of_Northbridges_2
Look under the Model heading;
ATI Radeon XPress 1150 (originally named ATI Radeon XPress for Intel)
Intel Essential Series
D101GCC/D102GCC
(Grand Country is the Code Name for the motherboard)
Now look under the Codename heading; {code name for the chipset}
RS400, RS415, RC400, RC410
Information on the Southbridge chip is in the table that is next.
(Comparison of Southbridges)
Primer;
The motherboard chipset is the Northbridge chip, and Southbridge chip.
(Does not apply to motherboards that support the Intel Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Core i9)
Chip and Chipset are slang terms for I.C.
Integrated Circuit,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrated_circuit
The Northbridge and Southbridge chips have their directional names, from the way they are placed on the motherboard, for one.
If the motherboard is placed so that the Processor at the Top, and the Ram Memory is to the right, the Processor is due North.
The Northbridge chip is placed close to the Processor.
The Southbridge chip is closer to the Bottom of the motherboard, or South.
(Closer to the expansion slots)
The Northbridge chip handles the faster capabilities of a computer.
Processor, Ram Memory, and High-speed graphics.
AGP and PCI-Express are High-speed graphics.
A graphics card inserted into a PCI expansion slot, or using Integrated Graphics, is Not high-speed graphics.
Anything associated with the PCI bus is handled by the Southbridge chip.
The Southbridge chip handles the slower capabilities of a computer.
Anything connected to,
1) IDE
2) SATA
3) USB
4) Ethernet
5) Audio (Codec)
Motherboard diagram,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Motherboard_diagram.svg
In the motherboard manual, (Product Guide), go to Page 11.
The motherboard is shown rotated to the right, in comparison to how it sits in a computer.
The Processor socket is indicated by the letter H.
To the Left is a square sitting diagonally. This is the Northbridge chip.
The Northbridge chip has an aluminum finned Heatsink sitting on top of it,

Click on the small photo of the motherboard to enlarge.
Processor socket in the foreground, Northbridge chip with aluminum finned Heatsink, sitting on top of it.
[ The Southbridge chip also has a Heatsink sitting on top of it. It's to the top left corner of the Northbridge heatsink, in the photo ]
Notice the wording for the motherboards brief specifications in it's heading.
The last specifications stated; ATI RC410 Chipset MBoard.
ATI RC410 MotherBoard Chipset.
In otherwords ATI Radeon XPress 200.

Testimonial: "Thank you very much you gave me so much insight into this problem.It was so helpful and my problem is solved!!!!! "
Edit:
"Processor socket in the foreground, Northbridge chip with aluminum finned Heatsink, sitting on top of it"
Should read,
"Processor socket is in the foreground.
The Northbridge chip, with an aluminum finned Heatsink sitting on top of it, is sitting behind the Processor socket."
You're very kind (Blush) Thank you for the rating, and kind words! Glad I could help
