The diskettes in this SoftPaq can be used to update these utilities on the Diagnostics Partition or to restore them if the Diagnostics Partition has been destroyed. Both utilities can be run by pressing F10 during power-up or reboot when prompted in the lower right corner of the screen on some models or when the cursor jumps to the upper right corner of the screen on other models. Or they can be run directly from these diskettes. NOTE: For the Deskpro EP, SB, and EN Series, Computer Setup/VP and Personal Computer Diagnostics must be run from diskette. Computer Setup/VP allows the user to configure security and power management settings as well as system resources (DMA, IRQ, I/O Ports, and Memory). It is specific to the Deskpro models mentioned above. Personal Computer Diagnostics contains programs that can test and inspect the state of the computer and its devices. It is used with the Deskpro models mentioned above, as well as other Compaq desktops and portables. Enhancements/Fixes: - This version will support all the features supported by Setup 1.74. - Added support for the onboard audio configuration for Deskpro EN Series. - Added support to report Covington processor as "Celeron(tm) Processor" - Added support to report larger hard drive size(larger than 8GB) correctly. - Removed the duplicate "Intel" text string in Setup. Text was in front of the "Pentium II" or "Celeron(tm)" processor. Problem arose when the new released ROM added "Intel" to OEM String. HOW TO USE: 1. Obtain three (3) formatted 1.44MB diskettes and place the first one in one of your diskette drives. 2. Download the SoftPaq to a directory on your hard drive. The file downloaded is a self-extracting executable with a filename based on the SoftPaq Number above. 3. Execute the downloaded file and follow the on-screen instructions. Entering "Y" to confirm the unpacking of files creates a new directory folder in the download directory. All files are unpacked into this newly created directory. 4.
