New Features -


        ProLiant ML350 G4p ROM D19 (04/14/2005)
        ============================================

               Added support for OS-level power management. When the Power 
	       Regulator feature is disabled (default), Demand Based Switching 
	       may be enabled under the operating system to provide processor 
	       power management. The operating system will modify the CPU's
	       frequency and voltage based on CPU Utilization. This feature can 
	       be enabled under Microsoft Windows 2003 Service Pack 1 and 
	       future versions of the Linux kernel.

        ProLiant ML350 G4p ROM D19 (04/14/2005)
        ============================================

               Updated embedded PXE Option ROM to version 7.7.8. This 
	       Option ROM addresses an issue where the NIC could assert 
	       a spurious interrupt during PXE boots. If using a Smart 
	       Array 64X or Smart Array 6i controller with a firmware 
	       version prior to 2.36 and the previous PXE Option ROM, 
	       a lock-up or continuous reboot could occur when 
	       performing a PXE Remote Installation Services (RIS) 
	       installation of Windows.
