New Features -


        HP ProLiant ML570 G3 system ROM P37 (11/11/2005)
        =================================================

	     1) Added support for new revisions of Intel Xeon MP processors.




Problems Fixed -


        HP ProLiant ML570 G3 system ROM P37 (11/11/2005)
        =================================================

	     1) Resolved an issue where a configuration error may be indicated
	        when attempting a memory board insertion at run-time in Hot-Plug
	        Mirroring mode or Hot-Plug RAID mode.  This issue would only
	        occur if a memory board is inserted, removed, and then quickly
	        re-inserted.  Delaying at least 5 minutes between the first
	        insertion and the second insertion prevents the problem.  When
	        the issue occurs, no harm has been done to the system.  Simply
	        remove the board, wait 5 minutes, and re-insert the memory board.
	        This version of the System ROM addresses this issue.

	     2) Resolved an issue where uncorrectable memory errors may be reported 
	        on the incorrect DIMMs when using Microsoft Windows 2003 x64 Edition.
