I think either WP Support has suffered a memory loss or your software
people have a hearing problem.  WordPerfect 5.1 _includes_ the
FIXBIOS.COM program - see Appendix Q of the WP 5.1 manual (WordPerfect
Files).  It is a utility file, though, so it may not have been
installed when WP 5.1 was installed on the machines.  Check your WP
utility directory (whatever it was defined as) to see if its present.
If not, run INSTALL again, it should give you the option of installing
the utilities.

Run FIXBIOS from your AUTOEXEC.BAT and you shouldn't ahve any more problems
with WP.  I have a ZF-151 and find that the WP FIXBIOS works like a
charm.  (nice little machines, aren't they?)
