SOFTPAQ UTILITY VERSION:  3.1

SUPERSEDES:  SP4123

DESCRIPTION:
Creates four diskettes:
- Two (2) diskette for Personal Computer Diagnostics Version 10.22 Rev A
- Two (2) diskettes for Computer Setup/VP Version 1.73 Rev A
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.

Enhancements/Fixes:
  - Corrects errors in the Finnish and Danish Help files.
  - Adds Support for NetPC across all Deskpros.

HOW TO USE:

1. Obtain four (4) formatted 1.44MB diskettes and place the first one
in one of your diskette drives.

2. 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.

3. Execute the downloaded file and follow the on-screen instructions. 
Entering "Y" to confirm the unpacking of files creates a new directory 
folder in the download directory.  All files are unpacked into this 
newly created directory.

4. To create the (4) diskettes run the "MAKEDISK.BAT" file and follow
the prompts.
You will be prompted to enter the additional diskettes.

Second Diskette -- Personal Computer Diagnostics Version 10.22 Rev A "INSPECT" (Disk 2 of 2)
Third Diskette -- Computer Setup/VP Version 1.73 Rev A (Disk 1 of 2)
Fourth Diskette -- Computer Setup/VP Version 1.73 Rev A (Disk 2 of 2)

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

drive, boot from the Diagnostics diskette (First diskette) and follow the 
prompts to create a diagnostics partition.  You will be prompted to insert 
the Setup diskettes.
