DESCRIPTION:
This SoftPaq creates a set of utility files that can be used with a remote 
configuration tool such as Altiris eXpress to update or restore the System ROM 
in the Compaq Deskpro EX and Deskpro EXS Series with a 686P0 Family ROM.  It 
also includes the ROM Image.

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

The ROM Family and ROM date can be determined by running the Setup Utility by 
pressing F10 on the target computer during system power on of the computer, and 
viewing File/System Information.  This information can be saved into a text 
file by selecting File/Save to Diskette.


ENHANCEMENTS/FIXES:
 - Adds code to avoid occasional system lockups when going into the Suspend to RAM 
   low power state on some models.
 - Corrects translations in the Dutch language module 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 files README.TXT and REPSET.TXT for further information about the 
utility programs.
