I have an compaq evo....2.4ghz processor, 512 md ram and 40gb hard disk. every time i start my system it shows me 1801-microcode patch error, while showing f1 to boot in left corner, when i press that, system starts working. rest i m okay..
Hi according to HP memo see the following answer hope it help:
DESCRIPTION
After installing a different system board or processor in systems described in the "Scope," the systems may halt during POST and display an 1801 Microcode Patch Error with a prompt to press the F1 key to continue.
NOTE
Pressing the F1 key will allow the system to continue. However, processor performance may not be optimized and the error will repeat each time the system is restarted.
HP recommends that the microcode be updated to ensure optimum compatibility and performance.
