Did you try resetting the system manager password using F985? We have a Flash quick reference on our website that describes how to do this.

Failing that you can open up the Flash and short out the memory capacitor for about 5 seconds to default the programming. The cap is usually black and about the width of a nickel.

Morning Bcox, yes I have. I am familiar with your site. Good information there. Yes, I've tried F985 many times. It takes you through the prompts to default the password. But when I enter the default password it does not work. I will try and short out the capacitor this morning. I normally do not like doing that but running out of options.

This is probably going to sound stupid, but you'd be surprised! Be SURE to remove the power before you start opening up the flash. If you look at that statement from a certain angle, it's contrary to what the tech was going to do.
