Hi:
You will need to update the BIOS to its latest version to get rid of the microcode error, and the processor will only run at half the FSB speed because the BIOS update was not written to make the E7xxx processors work correctly.
You will need to run this software each time you get into windows and change the multiplier to the max.
Or you can run that batch file listed on the below webpage for it to run automatically.

If I were you, I would just install a Conroe E6700 and have a problem-free upgrade.
You will need to use the DOS based flash because I don't think there is a BIOS update written for W7.

    Dear Sir,
    I am using hp compaq dc7600U  with pentium (R) 4 3.00 GHz. processor. When I changed the processor with Pentium D 3.4 GHz. processor I found a message " 1801 Microcode Update error" Press F1 to continue. After pressing F1 computer works normally. I want to know that how I can remove this error message. 

    Hi:
    You need to install the microcode update by using a bootable flash drive with the common MS DOS Command files and the contents of the microcode flash file included on the bootable flash drive.
    Then you type Flashbin.exe at the command prompt you get when you boot from the flash drive, and hit the enter key.
    Follow the on screen instructions to update the microcode.
    I have attached the tool to make a usb flash drive bootable and the MS DOS system files to copy onto the flash drive.
    See the 3 files below under Attachments.
    Unzip and copy the DOS  files without any folders to the flash drive after you run the HP tool to make it bootable.
    I have also zipped up and attached the microcode update files.
    Unzip them and put them on the flash drive too without any folders after you make the drive bootable.

  • How to fix "1801-Microcode Update Error" in HP Compaq dc7800 Convertible Minitower

    I have Intel Core 2 Duo @ 2.93 Ghz. My operating system is Windows 7 Ultimate x64.

    Hi:
    The E7500 processor is not supported in the dc7800, which is why you are getting the microcode error.
    Below is the list of supported processors.
    Intel Core 2 Duo Processors:
    Intel Core 2 Duo E4500 Processor (2.20-GHz, 2 MB L2 cache, 800-MHz FSB)
    Intel Core 2 Duo E4600 Processor (2.40-GHz, 2 MB L2 cache, 800-MHz FSB)
    Intel Core 2 Duo E4700 Processor (2.6-GHz, 2 MB L2 cache, 800-MHz FSB)
    Intel Core 2 Duo E6550 Processor (2.33-GHz, 4 MB L2 cache, 1333-MHz FSB)
    Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 Processor (2.66-GHz, 4 MB L2 cache, 1333-MHz FSB)
    Intel Core 2 Duo E6850 Processor (3.0-GHz, 4 MB L2 cache, 1333-MHz FSB)
    Intel Core 2 Duo E7200 Processor (2.53 GHz, 3 MB L2 cache, 1066 MHz FSB)
    Intel Core 2 Duo E7300 Processor (2.66 GHz, 3MB L2 cache, 1066 MHz FSB)
    Intel Core 2 Duo E8200 Processor (2.66-GHz, 6 MB L2 cache, 1333-MHz FSB)
    Intel Core 2 Duo E8300 Processor (2.83-GHz, 6 MB L2 cache, 1333-MHz FSB)
    Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 Processor (3.00-GHz, 6 MB L2 cache, 1333-MHz FSB)
    Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 Processor (3.16-GHz, 6 MB L2 cache, 1333-MHz FSB)
    Inter Core 2 Duo E8600 Processor (3.33-GHz, 6 MB L2 Cache, 1333-MHz FSB)
    As a long shot, you can try installing the latest microcode update. You need to use a bootable USB flash drive with dos files so you can run the flashbin.exe command after you copy the microcode update files to your bootable flash drive.
    I can't get to the dc7800 support site. When you can, select the microcode update download from 2010  v1.14
    If you are unfamiliar with how to make a flash drive bootable, here is a good "how to" article with the files you need.

    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.

  • 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.

    Please find the resulation.

    Hi:
    Did you install a different processor than the one that came with the PC?
    If so, what processor did you install?
    A microcode error means there is an unsupported processor installed or you need to install a microcode update to allow for support of the processor you installed if it can be supported in your dc5800.

  • How to fix Adobe App Manager error code -60 Download appears corrupt but only for Photoshop CS6 app

    How to fix Adobe App Manager error code -60 Download appears corrupt but only for Photoshop CS6 Creative Suite Cloud App. Many attempts were made to install Photoshop CS6 with Adobe Application Manager without success. Every other Creative Suite Application was successfully downloaded. I keep getting Installation Failed when attempting the Photoshop install. How does one correct this?

    Thanks Jeff! So, it totally appears as if it was a network issue. The corporate network where I work is quite likely the culprit. Where I was thrown off is that since I have admin rights on my computer, I can install software. But using Adobe Application Manager to install Adobe software wasn't working. And to make matters worse, there didn't appear to be any way to install Acrobat Pro for Mac without using AAM. The workaround that I used previously was to install the trial versions of Adobe software, and then just register them using my username and password. But the workaround for being able to install everything using AAM was to bring my computer home and download from my home network.

  • Is apple working of a fix for this update error.  8.0.1 needs 610mb of space.

    Is apple working of a fix for this update error?  8.0.1 needs 610mb of space. Every time I try to install the latest update, I get this error:  "Updating to iOS 8.0.2 requires at least 610 MB of free space on your iPhone. Please change your media sync options to make more storage available."  There is way more space than that on my phone, (about 12gB) and no matter what i do, I keep getting this error.  And what the heck are media sync options?
    Also, my phone will not backup, giving me another error.  iTunes could not backup this phone, because it could not back up to this computer, or something to that effect.  Even trying to manually backup to iCloud, i get the same message about this computer.  Seems like it started with the last update to iTunes.

    Hi:
    Now that you installed the latest microcode update, may I recommend you install the Pentium 4 650 3.4 GHz?
    That processor has double the L2 cache as the one you installed, and you can run a 64 bit operating system on it.
    If you have the CMT, you have a pretty wide assortment of video cards you can install so you can run all of the features of Windows 7.  The onboard GMA 900 video won't run Aero. Just keep within the power supply limit of 345W
    I have W7 x64 on my dc7100 CMT and an ASUS nVidia 8400GS 512 MB fanless video card in mine, and everything works great. Recommended P/S is 300W for the card so I was fine.
    The P4 650 is pretty reasonable on eBay. That is where I got mine.

    When trying to start Encore CS5.0 I get an "Encore.exe - No Disk" error box.  The box says "There is no disk in the drive.  Please insert a disk into drive\Device\Harddisk8\DR8".  There are 3 buttons: "cancel", "try again", and "continue", none of these get rid of the error box and I can't open Encore.

    I disabled a device in location 8 and the error box message changed to "There is no disk in the drive.  Please insert a disk into drive\Device\Harddisk4\DR4."  I re-enabled the device and the error box reverted to the original "...\DR8."
