Downloading software updates from
the HP Web site
Most software on the HP Web site is packaged in compressed
files called Softpaqs. Some BIOS updates may be packaged in
compressed files called ROMPaqs.
✎
The BIOS initializes the operating system, determines how the
computer will interact with the hardware devices, and provides
for information transfer among hardware devices, including the
time and date. The computer system BIOS is stored on the
system ROM.
Some download packages contain a file named Readme.txt,
which contains information regarding installing and
troubleshooting the file. (Readme.txt files included with
ROMPaqs are provided in English only.)
You can also access software updates by obtaining the Support
Software CD (purchased separately). The disc includes device
drivers, BIOS updates, and utilities. To purchase the current
Support Software disc or a subscription that provides both the
current version and future versions of the disc, visit the HP Web
site at
