ROM BIOS Information

Key features of the HP BIOS in the dc7900 include:

Deployment and manageability – HP BIOS provides several technologies that help integrate the HP Business desktop computer into the enterprise, such as PXE, remote configuration, remote control, and F10 Setup support for 12 languages.

Select models feature either Intel Standard Manageability or Core 2 processor with vPro Technology.

Stability – HP BIOS supports the HP stable product roadmap by releasing only critical BIOS changes to the factory and advanced change notification.

Security – HP BIOS Configuration for ProtectTools offers a robust and flexible set of security features to help the system administrator secure their systems from removal of sensitive data, and help prevent access by unauthorized users. Computrace agent – For tracking and tracing services, available in select countries, separate software and purchase of a subscription is required.

Thermal and power management – The HP BIOS provides and enables thermal and power management technologies so component temperatures are managed for high reliability and to assist in operating the HP Business Desktop computer in any enterprise environment.

Acoustic performance – Industry leading acoustic emissions across the range of operating conditions. Serviceability – HP BIOS provides diagnostic and detailed service information.

Upgrades and recovery – HP BIOS provides numerous ways to upgrade HP Business Desktop computers, including BIOS updates from within DOS (Flashbin), BIOS updates from within Windows (HPQFlash, SSM), HP Client Manager, and fail-safe recovery. In addition, the HP Business Desktop BIOS Utilities tool enables replicated BIOS setup throughout the Enterprise; it is available from within the BIOS software and from the support website.

Additional HP BIOS Features

Power-On password – Helps prevent an unauthorized user from powering on the system. After a TPM Basic User password is established in windows, the user or admin can require TPM hardware based authentication during the power-on process. Administrator password – Also known as the setup password, this helps prevent unauthorized changes to the system configuration. If the administrator password is not known, the BIOS version cannot be changed and changes cannot be made to BIOS settings using F10 setup or under the OS.

Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) – Represents a significant innovation in power and configuration management, allowing operating systems and applications to manage power based on activity and usage. HP Compaq dc7900 models use ACPI to provide power conservation features.
