This package contains utilities that can be used to restore or update the
system BIOS on the supported desktop models with a 786E1 BIOS.
IMPORTANT: This System ROM upgrade is considered to be a critical fix. HP
strongly recommends immediate application of required critical fixes.
This System ROM upgrade integrates a new version of Intel support code for
Intel Core 2 Duo E4000 and E6000 Series Processors. This Intel support code was
provided to HP as a critical software update. This System ROM update has no
known performance impact.
The Active Management Technology (AMT) V2.1 Management Engine (ME) firmware
image is only intended for Intel vPro configurations. This package, including
the V2.10 system BIOS, is not intended for non-AMT systems.
IMPORTANT: The system should NOT be updated with this new ME firmware if it is
a non-vPro configuration, or if it is using ASF as the management selection in
a vPro configuration. Once the ME firmware is updated to this new image, it
CANNOT be re-flashed to an older ME firmware version (that is, it CANNOT be
restored to a V2.0, or earlier AMT version), and functionality may be adversely
impacted in some ASF configurations.
Several methods for changing the BIOS version may be chosen. Included in this
package are the following methods:
- Use the DOS utility with a pre-boot execution environment (PXE) management
application to locally update or restore the system BIOS.
- Use HPQFlash to upgrade the BIOS directly in a Microsoft Windows or Microsoft
Windows Vista environment.
- Create a CD image to upgrade/restore system BIOS.
