DESCRIPTION: 
Creates four diskettes:

- two diskettes for Computer Setup for Workstations  

PC Diagnostics and Computer Setup for Workstations are both 
pre-installed on the Diagnostics Partition.  The diskettes in this 
SoftPaq should be used to update these utilities on the Diagnostics 
Partition.  They can also be used to restore the Diagnostics Partition 
if it has been destroyed.   Both utilities can be run by pressing F10 
when the cursor moves to the upper right corner of the screen during 
power-up or reboot.  Or they can be run directly from these diskettes.  

Personal Computer Diagnostics contains programs that can test and 
inspect the state of Compaq Professional Workstations and their devices.

Computer Setup for Workstations allows the user to configure security 
and power management settings as well as system resources 
(DMA, IRQ, I/O Ports, and Memory).

ENHANCEMENT/FIXES:

 - Fixed: Corruped Japanese word "enable/disable" in Storage section.
