DESCRIPTION:  Creates a cabinet file that contains a binary image for the 02.04.99

F10 Setup.

This is the same System ROM version that was originally included on the newer 810e models.
It is not an upgrade.  It is made available here as a convenience for users who may need 
to restore it to their computer for any reason.  This version is also fully backward 
compatible with previous units that use the Whitney 810 chipsets in the 686J1 ROM family.

This ROM version is recommended for use with Windows 98.

This ROM includes a ROM-based F10 Setup.  A Language Module option allows the user to 
select the language used in F10 Setup: Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, 
Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Spanish, or Swedish.  

Enhancements/Fixes:
 - Adds support for the newer 810e models.
 - Adds support for Compaq System Software Manager (SSM).

HOW TO USE:

1. Download the SoftPaq to a directory on your hard drive.
The file downloaded is a self-extracting executable with a filename 
based on the SoftPaq Number above.

2. Execute the downloaded file and follow the on-screen instructions. 
This creates the cab file containing the ROM image.

3. After the file has been created, you may delete the  
self-extracting file downloaded in step 1.

4. Refer to the Remote Management Setup documentation or SSM documentation for 
instructions on creating a Remote ROM Flash job to flash the ROM 
on target PCs on the network.
