What is new on Bios version 03.08 for HP SFF 8300?

I don't know if this is the right place to ask about Bios version 3.08 for HP SFF 8300. If it is, does anybody know anything about this Bios version?

Do you mean you cannot downgrade  back to v3.07 and below?

Thank you very much for the information.

Prego.

"Do you mean you cannot downgrade  back to v3.07 and below? "

That is my reading/understanding of the update message given by HP (not me).
