By establishing a setup password in the Computer Setup (F10) Utility, you can protect the ROM from being inadvertently updated or overwritten. This function is important to ensure the operating integrity of the workstation. To upgrade the ROM, download the latest SoftPaq images from http://www.hp.com//support/files.

Remote ROM Flash Remote ROM Flash allows system administrators to safely upgrade the ROM on remote HP workstations directly from a centralized network management console, resulting in a consistent deployment of, and greater control over, HP PC ROM images over the network. To use Remote ROM Flash, the workstation must be powered on, or turned on using Remote Wakeup. For more information about Remote ROM Flash, see the HP Client Manager Software or System Software Manager sections at http://www.hp.com/go/ssm. HPQFlash The HPQFlash utility is used to locally update or restore the system ROM on PCs using a Windows operating system.
