02f0:cpu id: A7 no microcode update loaded for alternate processor
Dear Sir.. I am facing problem in my L420 model laptop.. that is the above mentioned 02f0:cpu id: A7 no microcode update loaded for alternate processor error code appearing.. the problem is i cant access any bootable device if i try to put new bios its not supporting os cd and any other bootable devices.. so kindly guide me to solve the issues.. how i can put new bios version or tell me the solution for login bios?
is your CPU the original one shipped with your ThinkPad?

Software update popped up and I started it which restarted my Macbook as usual, but it has been loading for a couple of hours. In the meantime, I've tried turning my Macbook off and on to no avail, it stays in loading status (gray screen, small apple and the spinning gear). I've tried escaping, command shift Q, everything!
General advice on updating:
It is worth noting that it is an extreme rarity for updates to cause upsets to your system, as they have all been extensively beta-tested, but they may well reveal pre-existing ones, particularly those of which you may have been unaware. If you are actually aware of any glitches, make sure they are fixed before proceeding further.
So before you do anything else:
If you can, make a full backup first to an external hard disk. Ideally you should always have a bootable clone of your system that enables you to revert to the previous pre-update state.
Turn off sleep mode for both screen and hard disk.
Disconnect all peripherals except your keyboard and mouse.
1. Repair Permissions (in Disk Utility)
2. Verify the state of your hard disk using Disk Utility. If any faults are reported, restart from your install disk (holding down the C key), go to Disk Utility, and repair your startup disk. Restart again to get back to your startup disk.
At least you can now be reasonably certain that your system does not contain any obvious faults that might cause an update/upgrade to fail.
3. Download the correct version of the COMBO update from the Apple download site. If your car runs on gasoline you would not want to fill the tank with diesel, so don’t try to install the PPC updater on an Intel Mac!
The 10.4.11 Combo Updater for PPC Macs is here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL170
And for Intel Macs here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL172
If you prefer to download updates via Software Update in the Apple menu (which would ensure that the correct version for your Mac was being downloaded), it is not recommended to allow SU to install major (or even minor) updates automatically. Set Software Update to just download the updater without immediately installing it. There is always the possibility that the combined download and install (which can be a lengthy process) might be interrupted by a power outage or your cat walking across the keyboard, and an interrupted install will almost certainly cause havoc. Once it is downloaded, you can install at a time that suits you. You should make a backup copy of the updater on a CD in case you ever need a reinstall.
Full details about the 10.4.11 update here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24901?viewlocale=en_US
More information on using Software Updater here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24901?viewlocale=en_US
Using the Combo updater ensures that all system files changed since the original 10.4.0 are included, and any that may have been missed out or subsequently damaged will be repaired. The Delta updater, although a temptingly smaller download, only takes you from the previous version to the new one, i.e. for example from 10.4.10 to 10.4.11. Software Update will generally download the Delta updater only. The preferable Combo updater needs to be downloaded from Apple's download site.
Now proceed as follows:
4. Close all applications and turn off energy saving and screensaver.
5. Unplug all peripherals except your keyboard and mouse.
6. Install the update/upgrade. Do not under any circumstances interrupt this procedure. Do not do anything else on your computer while it is installing. Be patient.
7. When it ask for a restart to complete the installation, click restart. This can take longer than normal, there are probably thousands of files to overwrite and place in the correct location. Do nothing while this is going on.
8. Once your Mac is awake, repair permissions again, and you should be good to go!
If your Mac seems slightly sluggish or ‘different’, perform a second restart. It can’t hurt and is sometimes efficacious!
9. Open a few of your most used applications and check that all is OK. In this connection please remember that not all manufacturers of third party applications and plug-ins, add-ons, haxies etc, will have had time to do any necessary rewrites to their software to make them compliant with the latest version of your operating system. Give them a weeks or two while you regularly check their websites for updates. This applies particularly to plug-ins for Safari 3.
N.B. Do not attempt to install two different updates at the same time as each may have different routines and requirements. Follow the above recommendations for each update in turn.
Lastly, Apple's own article on the subject of Software Update may also be useful reading:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106695
[b]If you are updating Safari (or just have):[/b]
Input Managers from third parties can do as much harm as good. They use a security loophole to reach right into your applications' code and change that code as the application starts up. If you have installed an OS update and Safari is crashing, the very [i]first[/i] thing to do is clear out your InputManagers folders (both in your own Library and in the top-level /Library), log out and log back in, and try again.
So, disable all third party add-ons before updating Safari, as they may not have been updated yet for the new version. Add them back one by one. If something goes awry, remove it again and check on the software manufacturer's website for news of an update to match your version of Safari. Remember: Tiger up to 10.4.10 used Safari 2.0.4 or, if you downloaded it, Safari 3.0.3 beta. Safari 10.4.11 used Safari 3.0.4 which was [i]not[/i] a beta. If Safari 3.1.2 on 10.4.11 is not the fastest browser you have ever used, then something is wrong!
Moreover, trying to revert to Safari 3.0.4 (or worse still, version 2) when running 10.4.11 or 10.5 can have repercussions, as Safari 3.1.1 uses a completely different webkit on which other applications like iChat, Mail and Dashboard Widgets etc also rely, and may entail you having to reinstall an earlier operating system.
[b][i]Most errors reported here after an update are due to an unrepaired or undetected inherent fault in the system, and/or a third party ad-on.[/b][/i] Two such add-on that have been frequently mentioned here for causing such problems are Piclens and Pithhelmet. If you have them, trash them.
Additional tips on software installation here:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106692
To reiterate, Input Managers reach right into an application and alter its code. This puts the behavior of the affected application outside the control and responsibility of its developers: a recipe for problems. That's not to say that issues absolutely will ensue as a result of Input Managers, but you, as a user, must decide. If the functionality of a specific Input Manager or set thereof is really important to you, you may well choose to assume the associated risk.
Again, the advice is to remove all Input Managers from the following directories:
/Library/InputManagers
~/Library/InputManagers
especially prior to system updates (they can always be added back one-by-one later). -
XEN VM - Applying Intel CPU microcode update fails
Hi,
I just installed OEL5 and I get the following message on boot:
Applying Intel CPU Microcode update: FATAL: Module microcode not found.
ERROR: Module microcode does not exist in /proc/modules [Failed]
From my quick Google search this is caused by the XEN virutualization. If you you get the [Failed] message then you have a serious problem.
Any ideas?
Thanks

[SOLVED] AMD Microcode update failed (on Xen host)
I have an Arch system running as a VM Host based on Xen 4.4.1
It is yet unclear to me why the VMHost (Dom0) cannot update the CPU microcode of the AMD Opteron 3365.
The following errors appear.

I am aware that Xen can do some early loading of microcodes, since I have found clues in the Xen git logs.
But I guess Xen does not update the microcode, since the OS in Dom0 believes it is necessary to update the microcode.
Does anybody have a clue why updating the CPU microcode from within Dom0 fails?
Last edited by ArthurBorsboom (2015-01-10 12:45:29)I have solved the issue by using the Xen early microcode loading with the following changes.
Copy the correct microcode binary to the boot folder.
sudo cp /lib/firmware/amd-ucode/microcode_amd_fam15h.bin /boot
Edit the Xen command line in /etc/xen/grub.conf from
XEN_HYPERVISOR_CMDLINE="dom0_mem=1024M,max:1024M xsave=1"
to
XEN_HYPERVISOR_CMDLINE="dom0_mem=1024M,max:1024M xsave=1 ucode=-1"
Hardcode the /etc/grub.d/09_xen configuration file to load the binary.

And as you see in this example, there is no attempt to update the microcode anymore, since it is already up-to-date.
I hope this helps other people facing this issue. -

progandy wrote:Edit: You can download the microcode data here: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Search … crocode%22
This gives the same file that [extra]/intel-ucode uses, but neither the source nor the package provides "GenuineIntel.bin" mentioned in the document.
EDIT: If the info contained in the blog post you referenced is indeed accurate, I fail to see what value the intel-ucore packages provides at all. In other words, it loads the updates after the kernel has already disabled the features the updates are fixing. Seems as though either:
1) The package provides superfluous files.
2) It needs to generate a modified initrc image as described in the early-microcode.txt file you referenced.
3) We are wrong and the package does indeed provide a solution.

[SOLVED] Intel microcode not loaded - already available in the bios?
I'm getting ready to the linux 3.17 release and thought I should manually install the Intel microcode.
I noticed that I didn't even have the package installed, so that was my first stop.
After doing the steps outlined in the wiki, I'm not sure it's actually loaded.
The `sig` and `revision` in the available patch and the kernel output is the same.
Does this mean I already have the microcodes updated through the BIOS, or is this irrelevant?
And if it's irrelevant, any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Xw6200 1801 microcode update error
Hi I have recently upgraded my xw6200 workstation cpu from 2 x intel xeon 2.8 ghz to 2 x inel xeon 3.6 ghz. the problem is when i but up my pc i get a error "1801 microcode update error" and give me the option to boot by pressing f1 and the it boots up no problem apart from the fans are a lot noisier. is there a way to solve this error every time i boot up. its not a massive problem as windows runs fine after i press F1 but any help would be appreciated thanks.
Unfortunately, the latest version of the installed BIOS version is as good as it gets.
The BIOS family 786B7, which your BIOS is a member of, was last updated in 2006.
Unless a microcode update can be found through Windows update or at Intel for the installed operating system, this may be an issue that I am unable to help you resolve.
Normally a BIOS update is the answer, but no more exist.

how can I fix "1801 microcode update error" I have a hp compaq dc5700. I upgraded my processor to "core2Duo 2.6MHz, e4700"
Hi MOndo7299:
Thank you for your post. I am glad to help!
I assume that the P in the your post is for Processor. The "1801Mocrocode update error" is telling you to update the CPU. There is more then one way to do this. You can do this by downloading and running the HP Support Assistant. click here, to aid in updating drivers and resolving issues. You can update from Device Manager. Open Device Manager, right click on the processor and you should see an option to update. You could also check the manufacturer's site for any updates. For your convenience I am sending documentation on "Downloading or Updating Software and Drivers for HP Computers" click here. If you require further assistance would you please provide your exact model number, and what changes you have made. How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number? click here.

Trying to edit my yahoo profile using Firefox and certain elements do not show up such as update "Load Photo" on the avatar page.
If I use Explorer it allows me to see all the links and can edit my profile but not in Firefox.
I am not sure the URL will let you in as is a private link.'''Try the Firefox SafeMode''' to see how it works there. <br />
''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
* You can open the Firefox 4.0+ SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
'''''If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />

Can't add music my iPhone from iTunes.
When I try to drag a song over to my phone, I get the circle w/ the syncing line through it, but it does not update/load.
[Manually manage music and videos] is checked. And, this is the only Mac I have ever used to add music to my phone.
Also, just updated the phone's software today, and iTunes' software is already up to date.Hi Gregg,
Have you tried resetting the device (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the Home screen redisplays, see if your Music app is behaving normally.
Cheers,

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
Open iTunes.
Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.
(You may already have a micro USB cable if you have a camera or other digital device) -
Critical update won't load for office 2011 released 2.10.15
A critical update appears for Office 2011 released 2.10.2015 14.4.8 113.6 MB
This update fixes critical issues.
As soon as it goes through all the install process, it says it was successful, Then it immediatlely shows up as a critical update needed AGAIN.
I can't figure why it will load.
ThanksDoes the ext directory have the php_oci8.dll? In the original steps the PHP dir is renamed. In the given php.in the extension_dir looks like it has been updated correctly. Since PHP distributes php_oci8.dll by default I reckon there would be a very good chance that the problem was somewhere else. Since this is an old thread I don't think we'll get much value from speculation.
