It's really hope, not much more. But I guess you could at least check
what microcode the box has in use - if there's nothing newer available,
then trying to get the microcode updating working isn't of immediate
importance anymore (but of course it would still be nice to have in
place).

Sure we can; I just generally prefer not to bother people with
problems they already solved, but maybe that's the wrong approach
a case like this.
