PIX 520 with 5.1(4) OS enable password recovery

Hi,

I bought a PIX 520 @ ebay, however, I could not do a password recovery using a floppy as described @

formatting link
I start the PIX with the floppy (which I created with rawrite.exe and np51.bin): I get the following message:

Finesse Bios V3.3

Booting Floppy

...................................Execing flop

Also, it does not takes the Esc or Ctrl + Break to get to the monitor mode. I have tried with CRT version 3.4.6 and WINXP Hyper Terminal with 9600,

8, none, 1 setting.

I have copied and pasted startup screen and sh verion for your information:
