7911 Factory Reset TFTP Problem

Hi all,

I've got an issue with a 7911 that I factory reset.

First, I reset using the 123456789*0# key sequence, then pointed option 150 at my laptop and did a Wireshark capture.  It keeps trying to download term06.default.loads, which is a bit odd considering it's a 7911.  Screen then changes to Cisco logo with bullseye in lower left corner, and it just sits there.

I then came across another reset key sequence - 3491672850*#, which seemed to reset it again, but now when it boots up the screen is blank and I get exactly the same tftp requests as before this reset, except this time it gets stuck in a boot loop.

Is it a brick or is there a way to recover it?  I've tried with term06.default.loads from about half a dozen different firmware versions from 7, 8 and 9.  It never asks for any other file as it never gets past the first download.  Wireshark capture attached.  Using tftpd64 on my laptop.

Thanks in advance,

Jason
