The CAB file is used by Remote Management Setup to flash the System ROM on target Workstations on a network. Enhancements/Fixes: - Features new microcode patches for the Pentium III and Celeron processors. - Corrects a condition where the system may fail to find USB hubs or high speed USB keyboards. - Corrects a timing condition that caused the system BIOS to not find some USB devices that were connected through a Compaq V1000 USB hub. - Corrects a slow boot condition with newer CD-ROM drives that have drive shadowing, a new ATAPI specification. This caused longer than normal boot times. - Corrects a condition with video option ROM's greater than 32KB that exist with other PCI option ROM's in the system. The condition caused a video hang with certain video cards. - Corrects a condition with the IBM X.25 card when present with a PCI card featuring an option ROM that resulted in an error from the card's diagnostic program. - Corrects a condition that was causing the system to hang when warm booted if a Powerstorm 300 video card was installed. - Corrects a condition in F10 Setup for selecting the primary VGA card when two video cards are installed. - Added DMI table update to allow maximum memory as 768 MB and maximum processor speed as 600 Mhz. - Added fixes for the Matrox LE video capture card.
