        ProLiant DL380 G3 ROM P29 (01/08/2003)
        ============================================

           Updated to resolve issue on certain system boards where a blue screen 
           would occur under Windows 2000 with a message indicating 
           "The ACPI BIOS in this system is not fully compliant 
           with the ACPI specification."
           Due to this potential problem on certain system boards, 
           HP recommends that users upgrade to the 01/08/2003 ROM or newer, 
           and not run any previous System ROM Versions on these platforms..
