Microcode update error 1801 in hp compaq dc5800 sff

Dear sir,
we have facing a problem like in intial display sowing eror microcode update error 1801 in hp compaq dc5800 sff.
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 "1801-Microcode Update Error" in HP Compaq dc7600 Convertible Minitower

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.

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.
http://crystalmark.info/software/CrystalCPUID/index-e.html
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.

How can I fix "1801 microcode update error" I have a hp compaq dc5700. I replaced my processor

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.

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.

Microcode Update Error in HP DC7100 CMT

Hi, I have a hp dc7100 cmt and I have already read other post regarding Microcode Error, but the file that I need ---> http://h20566.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/public/detail?sp4ts.oid=402165&swItem=ir_63388_1&lang=en&cc=uk <--- isn't available where I can find it?

Hi:

Reminder that this microcode update will only work by using a floppy disk.
The file will ask you to insert a floppy disk in a FDD and it will create a bootable floppy disk and put the microcode update files on the disk.
Then you boot from the FDD and follow the on screen instructions to update the microcode.

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.

HP dc5800 SFF: Microcode Install with New Q9400 CPU

I have a HP dc5800 SFF with a core 2 duo dual core cpu. Checking the supported CPU list I installed a supported Q9400 cpu. Booted the machine and got a microcode error. Researched and found that I needed to download the Microcode file which I did from this site, the file is called "sp51245.exe".
How do I install this file? The computer won't boot, just gives microcode error. Do I put the old CPU back in then run the Microcode File then install the Q9400?
This question was solved.

Anytime.
Glad to have been of assistance.
Now you are knowledgable in updating the microcodes and flashing the BIOS's on any dc5xxx, dc7xxx, 6xxx Pro, or 8xxx Elite business desktop.

I want to run dual monitors with my hp compaq dc5800 Small From e7400 @ 2.8ghz. Will it work and what video card do you recomend?

Yes, I see that I was in error when I posted that. Sorry.
The quickspecs for any dc5800 state that it has a:
(1) low profile PCIe x16 (SDVO/ADD2) slot.
Accordingly, the only card you can install would be this one...

[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.
From
menuentry "Xen ${XEN_VERSION} / Arch Linux ${_KERNEL_PKG_} kernel" ${CLASS} {
$(save_default_entry)
if [ x\$feature_all_video_module = xy ]; then
insmod all_video
fi
set gfxpayload=keep
insmod ${BOOT_PART_FS}
if [ x\$feature_platform_search_hint = xy ]; then

echo 'Loading AMD Microcode'
module ${REAL_DIR}/microcode_amd_fam15h.bin
Rebuild the grub configuration file
sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
And reboot
Check with the following command that Xen is running
dmesg | grep xen
Check with the following command that the microcode has the correct version
[arthur@orion1695 ~]$ dmesg | grep microcode
[ 9.379631] microcode: CPU0: patch_level=0x06000832

[ 9.379823] microcode: Microcode Update Driver: v2.00 <[email protected]>, Peter Oruba
[arthur@orion1695 ~]$
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.
