I have three SUN Ultra 40 Workstation that cannot be updated to Windows 10. How can I update the AM

I have three SUN Ultra 40 Workstations, which have run quite well using 64 bit Windows 7 Enterprise. Unfortunately these cannot be updated to Windows 10.

It appears to be BIOS related (my guess here) and I'm looking for BIOS updates for this SUN hardware.

Has anyone successfully moved a SUN Ultra 40 Workstation to WIndows 10?

Here are some system details:

System Manufacturer Sun Microsystems

System Model Sun Ultra 40 Workstation

System Type x64-based PC

Processor Dual Core AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 280, 2400 Mhz, 2 Core(s), 2 Logical Processor(s)

BIOS Version/Date Phoenix Technologies Ltd. 1.30, 5/18/2006

SMBIOS Version 2.4

Windows Directory C:\Windows

System Directory C:\Windows\system32

Boot Device \Device\HarddiskVolume1

Locale United States

Hardware Abstraction Layer Version = "6.1.7601.24441"

Here is the error given. I cannot find the BIOS updates for the SUN Ultra 40 workstations on this site. Are they available?
