Version 2.12 Revision A, primarily supports the following new products: 

-	Compaq Prosignia 720 6/350
-	Compaq Prosignia 720 6/400
-	Compaq ProLiant 400 6/350 Model 1
-	Compaq ProLiant 400 6/350 Model 4300
-	Compaq ProLiant 400 6/400 Model 1
-	Compaq ProLiant 400 6/400 Model 4300

-	Compaq ProLiant 5500 6/450-2
-	Compaq ProLiant 5500R 6/450-2
-	Compaq Smart Array 221 Controller

Compaq Remote Insight Board Driver(CPQRIB.SYS) 
	Updated the Compaq Remote Insight Board Driver version from 1.50 to 
	1.51.  Version 1.51 corrects an issue where the previous version of 
	the Compaq Remote Insight Board Driver would not start on a 
	multiprocessor Compaq ProLiant 3000 or 5500 configured as follows: 
	Compaq Remote Insight Board/EISA and system ROM dated later than 3/98.

Compaq Remote Insight Board/PCI WAN Driver(RIBWAN.SYS) 
-	Updated the RIBWAN.INF file to re-enable the Compaq Remote Insight 
	Board/PCI Driver, along with the Compaq Remote Insight Board/PCI WAN 
	Driver, after it is installed and removed using Compaq Server Support 
	Setup for Microsoft Windows NT then reinstalled through the Windows 
	NT Control Panel using the RIBWAN.INF file.
-	Fixed a Compaq Remote Insight Board/PCI WAN routing issue.  In the 
	Compaq Remote Insight Board User Guide, you are asked to perform 
	the "route add A B" command, where A and B are IP addresses.  In 
	previous Compaq SSD for Windows NT 4.0 versions, the packets destined 
	for target A are not routed through the device properly if B is an IP 
	address on one of the Compaq Remote Insight Board/PCI WAN endpoints.  
	Beginning in Compaq SSD for Windows NT 4.0 Version 2.12A, the packets 
	destined for IP address A are properly routed through IP address B, 
	which is the Compaq Remote Insight Board/PCI WAN device.

Compaq Server Support Setup for Microsoft Windows NT 4.0(SETUP.EXE)
-	Added support to upgrade/downgrade your HAL if Microsoft Service Pack 
	4 is installed on your system.
-	Modified Compaq Server Support Setup for Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 to 
	disallow installation of the Compaq SCSI Controller Driver, the Compaq 
	SMART/SMART-2 Array Controller Driver, or the Compaq Fibre Channel Host
	Controllers SCSI Miniport Driver if it detects that you have removed 
	the driver through the Windows NT Control Panel.  Once the driver has 
	been uninstalled from the Windows NT Control Panel, you must reboot the
	system or reinstall the driver through the Windows NT Control Panel.
-	Added a new popup, indicating the supported version of the Compaq Array
	Configuration Utility that is supported in this Compaq SSD for Windows 
	NT 4.0 release, which will appear after the option to install the 
	utility has been selected.
-	Added an enhancement to indicate when you should update the Compaq 
	Array Configuration Utility on your system.
-	Removed the capability for Compaq Server Support Setup for Microsoft 
	Windows NT 4.0 Version 2.12A (or later) to operate on Compaq 
	Professional Workstation products.
-	Added support for the Compaq NC3161 Fast Ethernet NIC.
-	Modified Compaq Server Support Setup for Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 to 
	prompt you to update the Compaq Remote Insight Board/PCI WAN Driver 
	after installing RAS to ensure that a registry setting created by the 
	RAS install has the correct value for this driver. If this driver is 
	not updated after a RAS install is performed, the registry value will 
	be incorrect, disabling the "route add A B" command functionality that 
	was fixed in this release (see the "Compaq Remote Insight Board/PCI 
	WAN Driver(RIBWAN.SYS)" entry in this section).

For details, refer to NTREADME.HLP in the created support files.
