If the user selects the Next button, entered the correct password (if needed), and
has the appropriate rights, the application will interrogate the current PC BIOS
image and compare it to the BIOS image file (ROM.CAB) in the same directory as
the FLashbin.exe. If the BIOS image file is not applicable to the PC, a warning
message will be displayed. If the image is applicable, HPQFlash will display the
current BIOS and the BIOS version contained in the ROM.CAB file.
If the image file is applicable to the PC but is an older BIOS version than currently
installed, the user will receive the following warning; however the older image can
be restored to the PC if the user selects the Next button.
