3 Turn on the workstation.
If no ROMPaq diskette or ROMPaq CD is found, you will be prompted to insert one and restart the
workstation.
If a setup password has been established, the Caps Lock light will turn on and you will be prompted
to enter the password.
4 Enter the setup password.
If the system successfully starts from the diskette and successfully reprograms the ROM, then the
three keyboard lights will turn on. A rising tone series of beeps also signals successful completion.
5 Remove the diskette or CD and turn the power off.
6 Turn the power on again to restart the workstation.
The following table lists the various keyboard light combinations used by the Boot Block ROM (when a
PS/2 keyboard is attached to the workstation), and explains the meaning and action associated with
each combination.
Replicating the Setup
The following procedures give an administrator the ability to easily copy one setup configuration to other
workstations of the same model. This allows for faster, more consistent configuration of multiple
workstations.
NOTE Both procedures require a diskette drive.
NOTE To collect and replicate BIOS settings on multiple computers, use System Software Manager or
HP Client Manager Software. For more information, visit http://www.hp.com/go/easydeploy.
