There may be several reasons why:
1/ What version firmware are you running?
IIRC If it is V5.2 or above, you cannot downgrade to a lower version

2/ Use the SEP0015FA66E8DE.cnf.xml file to tell it the version to use,
for V5.1 SIP firmware, it should contain:

<Default>
<loadInformation8  model="IP Phone 7940">P0S3-05-1-00</loadInformation8>
<loadInformation7  model="IP Phone 7960">P0S3-05-1-00</loadInformation7>
</Default>

Ideally, you should be looking to run at least V6.3 SIP firmware, V7.4
or 7.5 would be much better.
