ROM Flash
Your HP workstation comes with a programmable flash ROM. 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.
NOTE: For maximum ROM protection, be sure to establish a setup password. The setup password
prevents unauthorized ROM upgrades. System Software Manager enables you to create the setup
password on one or more workstations simultaneously. For more information, see
http://www.hp.com/
go/ssm.
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 individual PCs through a
Windows operating system.
For more information about HPQFlash, visit
http://www.hp.com/go/ssm, and enter the name of your
workstation.
FailSafe Boot Block ROM
The FailSafe Boot Block ROM enables system recovery in the unlikely event of a ROM flash failure. For
example, if a power failure occurs during a ROM upgrade, the Boot Block uses a flash-protected section
of the ROM to check for a valid system ROM flash when power to the system is restored.
●
If the system ROM is valid, the system starts normally.
●
If the system ROM fails the validation check, the FailSafe Boot Block ROM provides enough support
to start the system from a BIOS image CD created from a SoftPaq. The BIOS image CD programs
the system ROM with a valid image.
When Boot Block detects an invalid system ROM, the workstation power LED blinks red eight times and
beeps eight times, then the workstation pauses for two seconds. Also, eight simultaneous beeps will be
heard. A Boot Block recovery mode message is displayed on the screen (some models).
In preparation for system recovery, use the BIOS CD media file in the SoftPaq to create a BIOS image
CD.
