RND2000-V2 cannot reset to select factory default
i have two RND2000-v2 that both are causing the same problem. Let me first say that i do not have the current password so i have to do a boot and default to factory settings. If i power up, with a good windows formatted disk in i get the flashing lights showing "bad boot Sector" i can power down normally. if i power up with no disks in i get the flashing lights showing no disk. i can power down normally. if i hold reset when powering up it seems to start up, the boot menu never appears, but after some time the power button continues to flash, and the activity led flashes, it will do this for hours. the boot menu never appears. what's more, i cannot power down using the power button. I can see the ip address assigned to the readynas, but i cannot access the front page, Raidar cannot see the Readynas either. whats worse its the same with two identical units. i can only conclude that i am doing something wrong as i just cannot get to the boot menu, any help would be appreciated, i just want to default to factory settings. HELP!!!
