That machine is a pain to get into OF, beccause the timing is important.
Make sure you're doing it from a cold start, not from a reboot, because it
usually doesn't work when rebooting.  Make sure you don't hit it until you
hear the chime, but that you hit all four keys before the bong finishes,
and you should be able to make it work consistently.
