1.  INTRODUCTION

This file contains information regarding use of the Compaq Support Paq for
Microsoft Windows NT 4.  The following information is provided:

    Support Paq Installation
    Component Usage
    Log File Usage


2.  SUPPORT PAQ INSTALLATION

The primary method for installing the Support Paq is to run the SETUP.EXE
program included with the Support Paq.  By default, all software is selected for
installation.  In most circumstances, this default selection should not be
altered, and installation is as simple as pressing the "Install" button.  Even
when selected, only software that is appropriate for the system it is being run
on will actually be installed.  Press the "Install" button to proceed with the
installation.  After installation of the appropriate software the utility will
display its results, including indication of software successfully installed,
software not needed for the current system configuration and any installation
failures.  For more information on the usage of SETUP.EXE, refer to the help
file (SETUP.HLP).

A BPxxxxxx.CMD file is also provided with the Support Paq for use in installing
the Support Paq from a command prompt without user interaction.  As with the
SETUP.EXE program, all software appropriate for the system it is being run on
will be installed.

The Compaq Support Paq for Microsoft Windows NT 4 contains numerous files.  All
files must be present in the same directory as the SETUP.EXE program or in order
for the Support Paq to be installed properly.

A console version of the setup application (SETUPC.EXE) is also provided as a
way to script installations of the Support Paq or components.  For more
information on its usage, refer to the help file (SETUPC.HLP).


3.  COMPONENT USAGE

In addition to the SETUP.EXE program mentioned above, the Support Paq contains
individual .EXE files corresponding to the various components that make
up the Support Paq.  If necessary, these components can be installed
individually or their contents extracted to a floppy diskette for use during OS
installation.

To install an individual component just run the appropriate CPxxxxx.EXE file
and chose the "Install" button.

To extract the contents of a component to diskette run the appropriate
CPxxxxx.EXE file, then chose the "Extract" button instead of the "Install"
button.
