nrf51 DK board not detected !

Hi

Recently we bought NRF51 DK board. Initially when i connect the nrf51 DK board to PC via USB it mounts JLINK driver and on IF/BOOT button it mounts BOOTLOADER drive. Updated the bootloader firmware 'ble_default_bootloader_app.hex' (initial FOTA image: developer.mbed.org/.../ to BOOTLOADER drive. After this i was not able to see the LD5 led blinking/on, and not able to detect the nrf51 DK board as USB device/MSD, tested with nrfGo studio and with JLink tools also. How to recover the bootloader and detect the nrf51 DK board?

    nrfjprog --recover option I don't know where to get this tool

    or Run JLink Commander ( JLink.exe ) and in it's command window give following commands; si 1 r h w4 4001e504 2 w4 4001e50C 1 w4 4001e514 1 r That reset's whole flash hmm... i tried that from my linux machine running Fedora21 and form windows machine running Win 8. Running JLinkExe: |dvb|./JLinkExe

    I was expecting a device shown in lsusb or in the device manager. The nrf51 dk board was not at all getting detected as USB device. To use the JLink* tools i think we will need the device to be detected on USB first!
