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.

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