ROM Flash
HP workstation include 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
www.hp.com/support/
workstation_swdrivers.
For maximum ROM protection, establish a setup password. The setup password prevents unauthorized
ROM upgrades. SSM enables you to create the setup password on several workstations simultaneously.

Remote ROM Flash allows system administrators to safely upgrade the ROM on remote HP workstations
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.
