DESCRIPTION:  Creates a cabinet file that contains a binary image of the v1.09
version System ROM for Deskpro EN Series, Deskpro EN Series SFF, and Deskpro Workstation 
AP240 and AP250 models with a 686J2 Family ROM.  The ROM Family and ROM date can be determined 
by running F10 Setup.  

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, Japanese, Norwegian, Portuguese, Spanish, or Swedish.  Please note however, that 
the user sees the chosen language only in F10 Setup, not in the operating system.

Enhancements/Fixes:

- Corrects a condition that was causing the system to lock up if the keyboard buffer became
  full in DOS mode.
- Corrects a condition with the Oxygen GVX1 and Synergy II PCI video cards that was
  causing the system to incorrectly disable the cards. 
- Adds support for multiple types of Samsung RIMM memory modules.


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 System Software Manager (SSM) 
documentation for instructions on creating a Remote ROM Flash job to flash the ROM on
target PCs across the network.
