The first error means the pocessor need to be reverse. (swap the slots) the higher step version has to be in the first slot. the second is indicating that the step version on the newest processor did not exist when the BIOS version you have in the server was created.
Try removing the processor, upgrade the Bios, then move the existing processor to slot 2 and install the new one in slot two.

For best results, both processors should be the same speed and step level. Also upgrade the system ROM to the latest version before you install the processor. After you install the processors, run the Compaq system setup program and save the new hardware configuration to CMOS. You can download the system ROM upgrade from this web address.
