Remote ROM Flash, Remote Wakeup, and Remote Shutdown,
when integrated with Management Solutions Partners products,
deliver on-going management of firmware, 24 hours a day. This
supplements the software distribution capabilities of the
Solutions Partners products, which can also be used to
distribute new applications, device drivers, and other system
software. The Compaq Support Software CD and Web site
includes updated ROM images and device drivers which can be
distributed to client PCs using these software tools.
For more information, refer to the online Remote Management
Administrators Guide. The Remote Management Administrators
Guide is included with the Remote Management Administration
Tools, and is available on the Support Software CD for Compaq
Desktop, Portable, and Workstation Products or at the Compaq
Web Site at www.compaq.com.
Your computer comes with reprogrammable flash ROM (read only
memory). By establishing a setup password in Security
Management, you can protect the ROM from being unintentionally
updated or overwritten. This is important to ensure computer
operating integrity. Should you need or want to upgrade your ROM,
you may:
Order an upgraded ROMPaq diskette from Compaq.
Order the Compaq Support Software CD for Compaq
Desktop, Portable, and Workstation Products.
Download the latest ROMPaq images from the Compaq
World Wide Web site (www.compaq.com).
CAUTION:
For maximum ROM protection, be sure to establish a
setup password. The setup password prevents unauthorized ROM
upgrades.
