The , often referred to by its HP/Compaq codename "Eton," is a micro-ATX motherboard manufactured by Foxconn. While full circuit schematics are generally proprietary and not publicly released, detailed layout guides and pinout specifications are available for troubleshooting and case migration.

A sprawling bus of 64-bit data lines, 32-bit address lines, and numerous control strobes. On the schematic, these appear as thick, parallel lines labeled "FSB_HA[31:0]" or similar. The G41’s role is to bridge the CPU to the memory (DDR3 DIMMs, often only two slots due to cost) and to the graphics. A notable feature of the G41 is its "Direct Media Interface" (DMI) to the ICH7 (I/O Controller Hub) southbridge—a narrow, high-speed point-to-point connection replacing the older PCI-based hub link. 1x PCI Express x16 (graphics), 2x PCI Express
Understanding its layout and schematics is essential for troubleshooting power issues, upgrading components, or simply resetting a forgotten BIOS password. Key Specifications & Layout H-IG41-uATX LAN: Realtek RTL8103E/RTL8103EL PCIe Fast Ethernet
