Open the unit and on the motherboard there should be 3 pairs of jumper
blocks and two jumpers.  Make a record of which posts the jumpers are
on and remove them.  Wait about 30 minutes and replace the jumpers.
Then power the unit and run the utility program.

Also be sure to read the release notes to make sure you are running
the correct FP utility.  There are two and one of them is for the FP5
only.

But, on the Shiva website it says not to do that if you have the
v5.1 ROM's, which I do have.

It says to contact Shiva Tech Support...and I don't really feel
like calling their normal number and trying to talk with someone.
If they had e-mail tech support it'd be a bit better.
