     ROMPAQ UTILITY ROMPAQ.EXE Version 4.0
     ========================================

                Ability to Change to the A: drive or re-detect devices
                on the A: drive after flashing systems ROM.

                Fixed programming problem when ROMPAQ was run from a write
                protected diskette.

                Changed functionality of ROMPAQ so that when launched from
                System Configuration, it will return back instead of halting
                and requiring a power cycle.  This includes Local and Remote
                sessions of ROMPAQ.

                Fixed problems with memory leaks that could show if more than
                one ROM is flashed during a ROMPAQ session.
