DESCRIPTION:  This creates a ROMPaq firmware diskette that can be used to 
restore or upgrade the System ROM to the 07/24/98 version in Compaq Prosignia 
Desktop 330 Series models mentioned above, when they have a 686T9 Family ROM.  
The ROM Family and ROM date can be determined by running F10 Setup.  

This ROM includes a ROM-based F10 Setup.  A Language Module option allows the 
user to select the language used in F10 Setup:  Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, 
French, German, Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Spanish, or Swedish.  

This ROM version is recommended for use with Windows 98.

This is the same System ROM version that was originally included
on the affected models.  It is not an upgrade.  It is made available    
here as a convenience for users who may need to restore it to their 
computer for any reason.

HOW TO USE:

1. Obtain a formatted 1.44-MB diskette.

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. From that drive and directory, execute the downloaded file 
and follow the on-screen instructions.  You will be prompted to 
insert the formatted diskette in a drive to create the diskette.

4. After the diskette has been created, you may delete the  
SoftPaq file downloaded in step 2.

5. Keeping the newly created diskette in the A: drive, cycle 
system power to boot from the ROMPaq diskette.

6. Follow the on-screen instructions to select the 07/24/98 
Compaq System ROM or the Language Module option and upgrade the firmware.
