Desktop Management Remote ROM Flash Ä Your Personal Computer comes with reprogrammable flash ROM (read only memory). By establishing a setup password in Security Management, you can protect the ROM from being unintentionally updated or overwritten. This is important to ensure the operating integrity of the Personal Computer. Should you need or want to upgrade your ROM, you may: I Order an upgraded ROMPaq diskette from Compaq. I Download the latest ROMPaq images from the Compaq World Wide Web site (www.compaq.com). CAUTION: For maximum ROM protection, be sure to establish a setup password. The setup password prevents unauthorized ROM upgrades. Compaq Insight Manager LC allows the system administrator to set the setup password on one or more PCs simultaneously. For more information, visit the Compaq Web site at www.compaq.com. Using Remote ROM Flash ✎ Remote ROM Flash allows the system administrator to safely upgrade the ROM on remote Compaq personal computers, directly from the centralized network management console. Enabling the system administrator to perform this task remotely, on multiple computers and Personal Computers, results in a consistent deployment of and greater control over Compaq iPAQ ROM images over the network. It also results in greater productivity and lower total cost of ownership. All Compaq iPAQ ROMPaq ROM images from Compaq are digitally signed to ensure authenticity and minimize potential corruption.
