Hello guys, i'm new in nRF51 DK board, and i would like to flash the .hex file to my board, but when i do it the board automatically unmounting himself and reset with the following file: fail.txt which contain the "CORRUPT FILE" message. If i copy the binary file i got the same problem or "OUT OF MEMORY" message.

Although my issue was different, but I was looking for a way to kind of factory reset and the link posted by Jan Jongboom worked fine. Thanks, Jan.
Could you update the firmware to latest JLINK firmware from Nordic? That's how it comes out of the box, so basically resetting it to original state: https://www.nordicsemi.com/eng/nordic/download_resource/52276/5/91880143.
