Pre-install Refresh
Abstract: The purpose of this White Paper is to provide
information on the software update (referred to as the Pre-install
Refresh) for Armada 7400 and 7800 notebooks and provides the
basis for future Armada models. The scope of the initiative is to
provide upgrades to a number of key software components as well as
introduce new software functionality over and above that which was
included with earlier units.
The following image refreshes have occurred during the
continuously improving life cycle of the Armada 7800 and 7400
notebook computers. All software component upgrades referred to in
this document have been tested and are supported. Upgraded
software components are available for download from the Compaq
Web site and the Compaq Support Software CD.
