DESCRIPTION:  This fixes the issue where an emergency recovery diskette created on 
one of the affected Presario models is not being created correctly.  The 9-digit CTO 
option numbers are being incorrectly incremented, making the CTO options uninstallable. 
This Softpaq corrects the 9-digit option numbers in the UIA and in CTO.TXT, so that 
a valid emergency diskette can then be created.

HOW TO USE:

1. Download the SoftPaq into a temporary directory on your local drive.

2. Put a blank formatted diskette in A: drive.

3. Execute the downloaded executable file (the Softpaq).

4. Follow the instructions on the screen. It will extract the files into 
   the diskette as well as in the current directory.

5. Reboot the computer with the diskette in Drive A, and follow the instructions.

6. After the software has been installed, remove the diskette and reboot the computer.

7. The temporary directory may be deleted.
