Downloading Software from the
Internet
Most software on the HP Web site is packaged in a compressed
file called a SoftPaq. Some ROM updates may be packaged in a
compressed file called a ROMPaq. Other ROM updates may be
provided as a CPQFlash SoftPaq.
Most download packages contain a file named Readme.txt. A
Readme.txt file contains information regarding installing and
troubleshooting the file. The Readme.txt files included with
ROMPaqs are in English.
