It's on the top shelf, just behind the four-liter jar of pickles.

What, you don't have a four-liter jar of pickles?  Well, my kids are
definitely not coming to visit, then. 8*)

Ok, unconfirmed, because, as I said, no got windows, but I'm told that
you want to open ACU, go to "Options" menu, select "Preferences".  Near
the bottom of the dialog are two check-boxes.  The first (upper) one
says something like "Always load new firmware".  Make sure it's not
checked.
