----- Enhancements/Fixes in this Release -----
This release supports the new Compaq Professional Workstation 5100, Compaq ProLiant 1600, 
and the Compaq ProLiant 7000.  Details are in NTREADME.HLP. 

Compaq Netelligent/NetFlex-3 Controllers
- Updated driver to support the Netelligent 10 T/2 PCI UTP/Coax Controller (a 10Base-T, 
  10Base-2 combination controller, with an RJ45 and BNC connector).
- Added support for the Compaq Professional Workstation 5100.

Compaq Professional Workstation 5100
- Added Remote Wakeup capability, allowing a system administrator to power-up a client 
  computer from a remote console.

Compaq Support Software Setup Utility
The new setup utility for the Compaq SSD for Windows NT uses an entirely different 
Graphical User Interface (GUI) than older versions of Setup. The new GUI is more visual 
and straightforward, while giving more flexibility of new features in terms of functionality.  
The new features of this interface are the following:
- Remote Installation-Added the ability to install, remove, update, and configure 
  components remotely via machine name.  The new Setup 2.01 is no longer constrained to 
  the local machine, as past Setup versions have been.
- Command Line Installation-Added the ability to install, remove, update, and configure 
  components from the command line.  This option allows most of the functionality of the 
  GUI interface, but with no output other than to a log file.  This type of Setup is 
  desired for SMS and SmartStart Configurations.

Compaq System Management Driver
- Added System Management Health driver support for the Compaq Professional Workstation 5100 
  and the Compaq ProLiant 7000.
- Added hot replace fans and redundant VRMs for the Compaq ProLiant 7000.
- Added support for capturing blue screen events via IRC (Integrated Remote Console).  
  This feature requires version 1.4 or later of the IRC firmware.  This firmware is part of 
  the system ROM; all systems that support IRC will receive this firmware as part of their 
  next maintenance ROM release.  Enable the Remote Console functions for IRC through the 
  Compaq System Configuration Utility to view the firmware version number.

Diamond Multimedia Fire GL 4000 Video Accelerator
- Added Diamond Multimedia Fire GL 4000 Video Accelerator support for the Compaq 
  Professional Workstation 5000, the Compaq Professional Workstation 5100, the Compaq 
  Professional Workstation 6000, and the Compaq Professional Workstation 8000.  
  The Diamond Multimedia Fire GL 4000 Video Accelerator is comprised of a new display 
  controller and associated drivers.

ELSA Gloria-L Video Driver
- Updated Windows NT 4.0 drivers.

ESS AudioDrive Driver
- Updated Windows NT 4.0 drivers.
- Changed driver file essaudio.dll to auddrive.dll.
- Added config.ini file to driver set to allow OEM to control default selection of resources.
- Added driver support for base I/O addresses 220h, 240h, 260h, 280h.

Matrox Millennium/Millennium II Video Driver
- Display driver (MGA64.DLL)
- Added new product names and chip IDs for AGP boards, Mystique 220, Cyclone, and Chinook.
- Restricted FastBlt to the first 2 (non-interleaved modes) or 4MB (interleaved modes) of 
  memory.
- Corrected source coordinates passed to vGetBits in DrvStretchBlt with ppdev->x/yOffset.
- Added a mask for ModeType in QUERYMODESUPPORT.
- Modified DrvStretchBlt so that the call is returned to GDI whenever the destination is 
  actually in host memory.
- Modified the PickPointFuncs and PickLineFuncs funtions of the MCD to return FALSE when 
  MCD_COLOR_LOGIC_OP_ENABLE is requested.
- Updated the ALLOCATETAGRAM Escape service.  The ALLOCATETAGRAM Escape service does not 
  require a FREETAGRAM call in order to re-use the allocated tag ram area, if the TagId 
  field of the new call is the same as for the previous call.
- Included the patch for preventing the 'Invalid Display Settings' message to be displayed 
  when the refresh rate is not the expected one in this version.
- Miniport driver (MGA64.SYS)
- Added new product names and chip IDs for AGP boards, Mystique 220, Cyclone, and Chinook.
- Defined default 60Hz modes for resolutions 1600x1024, 1600x1280, 1800x1440, 1920x1080, 
  and 1920x1200, but these defaults will be rejected if no MGA.INF file exists.
- Placed limitations on the modes, which range from 640x480 to 1600x1200, when the 
  User.MgaInfoFile switch of the registry is set to 0.
- Made the control aperture shareable when a Rainbow Runner is found.
- Included the patch for preventing the 'Invalid Display Settings' message to be displayed 
  when the refresh rate is not the expected one in this version.

STB Systems MVP Workstation Display Controller
- Added STB Systems MVP Workstation Display Controller support for the Compaq Professional 
  Workstation 5100, the Compaq Professional Workstation 6000, and the Compaq Professional 
  Workstation 8000. The STB Systems MVP Workstation Display Controller is comprised of a 
  new display controller and associated drivers.
