DESCRIPTION:  Creates a set of utility files that can be used with a remote 
configuration tool such as Intel LANDesk Configuration Manager (LCM) to 
update or restore the 08/05/99 version System ROM and/or change the Language 
Module option in F10 Setup in the Deskpro EN Series models with a 686T3 Family 
ROM. 

The ROM Family and ROM date can be determined by running F10 Setup.

The standard ROMPaq will not work for updating a PC remotely over a network.

A unique feature of the ROM is one that allows the user to select the language used in
F10 Setup.  The user may choose between Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, 
Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Spanish, or Swedish.  Please note however that 
the user sees the chosen language only in F10 Setup not in the operating system.

This ROM version is compatible for use with Windows 2000 Beta.

Enhancements/Fixes:

- Corrects a condition in F10 Setup that would not allow choosing the primary
  VGA display card if two VGA cards were installed in the system.
- Corrects a condition where the num-lock key was not being turned on at POST after being 
  enabled in F10 Setup.

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. 
Entering "Y" confirms the unpacking of several files. 

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

4. Refer to the file README.TXT for instructions about the use of the 
utility programs.
