Technical Specifications

System/Emergency ROMRecovers corrupted system BIOS
Flash Recovery with
Video
ROM revision levels	Identifies system ROM revision levels and reports in ROM-based F10 setup
	Version is stored in an industry standard memory location (SMBIOS) so that management
	SW applications can use and report this information
System board revision	Allows management SW to read the revision level of the system board
level	Revision level is digitally encoded into the hardware and cannot be modified
Auto Setup when New	System automatically detects addition of new hardware
Hardware Installed
Serial, Parallel, USB,	Enable or disables serial, parallel, USB, audio, and network ports
Audio, Network,
Enable/Disable Port
Control
Removable Media Write/	Prevents ability to boot from removable media on supported devices (and can disable writes to
Boot Control	media)
Power-On Password	Prevents an unauthorized person from booting up the computer
Setup Password	Prevents an unauthorized person from changing the system configuration
Replicated Setup	Saves BIOS settings to diskette or USB disk-on-key in human readable file. Repset.exe utility can
	then replicate these settings on machines being deployed without entering ROM-based F10 setup
Memory Change Alert	Alerts management console if memory is removed or changed
(Requires HP Client
Manager Software)
Thermal Alert (Requires	Monitors the temperature state within the chassis. Three modes:
HP Client Manager	NORMAL – normal temperature ranges
Software)
	ALERTED – excessive temperatures are detected. Raises a flag so action can be taken to
	avoid shutdown or provide for a smoother system shutdown
	SHUTDOWN – excessive temperatures are encountered. Automatically shuts down the
	computer without warning before hardware component damage occurs
Master Boot Record	Detects changes to MBR and optional restoration, useful in protecting from viruses
Security
Remote ROM Flash	Provides secure, fail-safe ROM image management from a central network console
Remote	System administrators can power on, restart, and power off a client computer from a remote
Wakeup/shutdown	location.
	Enables cost-effective power consumption when the administrator needs to distribute
	software, perform security management, or update the ROM
ACPI (Advanced	Allows the system to wake from a low power mode
Configuration and Power	Controls system power consumption, making it possible to place individual cards and
Interface)	peripherals in a low-power or powered-off state without affecting other elements of the
	system
	Supports ACPI 2.0 for full compatibility with 64-bit operating systems
Keyboard-less Operation	The system can be operated without a keyboard
SMBIOS	System Management BIOS 2.3.5, previously known as DMI BIOS, for system management
	information
Localized ROM Setup	Common BIOS image supports configuration (Setup) in 11 languages, with local keyboard
	mappings
Asset tag	Allows user or MIS to set unique tag string in ROM
Ownership tag	Allows user or MIS to set unique tag string in ROM
Memory Scrubbing	Allows memory controller to transparently correct transient ECC errors in the background
Memory Remapping	Allows system memory lost to PCI devices to be reclaimed above 4 GB, for use with operating
	systems that support more than 4 GB (Windows XP 64-bit edition, Linux)
Per-slot control	Allows individual slot configuration (option ROM., latency)
Adaptive cooling	Fan control parameters are set according to detected hardware configuration for optimal acoustics
Pre-boot diagnostics	Early (pre-video) critical errors are reported via beeps and blinks on the power LED
