DESCRIPTION:
Creates three diskettes:
- Two (2) diskettes for Computer Setup/VP Version 1.72 Rev A 
- One (1) diskette for Personal Computer Diagnostics Version 10.17 Rev B
These related utilities were formerly in two separate SoftPaqs.

Computer Setup and PC Diagnostics are both pre-installed on the 
Diagnostics Partition.  The diskettes in this SoftPaq can be used to 
update these utilities on the Diagnostics Partition or to restore them 
if the Diagnostics Partition has been destroyed.   Both utilities can be 
run by pressing F10 during power-up or reboot when prompted in the lower 
right corner of the screen on some models or when the cursor jumps to the 
upper right corner of the screen on other models.  Or they can be run 
directly from these diskettes.  

Computer Setup/VP allows the user to configure security and power 
management settings as well as system resources (DMA, IRQ, I/O Ports, 
and Memory).  It is specific to the Deskpro models mentioned above.

Personal Computer Diagnostics contains programs that can test and 
inspect the state of the computer and its devices.  It is used with the 
Deskpro models mentioned above, as well as other Compaq desktops and 
portables.

HOW TO USE:

1. Obtain three (3) formatted 1.44MB diskettes and place the first one 
in one of your diskette drive.

2. Download the SoftPaq to a directory on your hard drive and change to
that directory.  The file that is downloaded is an executable with a 
filename based on the SoftPaq Number above.

3. Execute the SoftPaq file to create the three diskettes.
You will be prompted to enter the additional diskettes.  
Label them as follows:
First Diskette -- Computer Setup/VP Version 1.72 Rev A (Disk 1 of 2)
Second Diskette -- Computer Setup/VP Version 1.72 Rev A (Disk 2 of 2)
Third Diskette -- Personal Computer Diagnostics Version 10.17 Rev B

4. After the diskettes are created, you may delete the file downloaded
in step 2 if you wish.

IMPORTANT: If installing Computer Setup/VP to a new unpartitioned hard 
drive, boot from the Diagnostics diskette (third diskette) and follow the 
prompts to create a diagnostics partition.  You will be prompted to insert 
the Setup diskettes.

5. To install or upgrade Computer Setup/VP on the Diagnostics Partition, 
or to run it directly from the diskettes, boot from the first Setup/VP
diskette and follow the prompts.  

6. To install or upgrade Personal Computer Diagnostics on the Diagnostics 
Partition, boot from the Diagnostics diskette (third diskette) .  From the 
"Manage Diagnostics Partition" menu, select "Create" or "Update" partition 
and follow the prompts.
