Thank you!
I ended up loading the new beta firmware out of order, and promptly lost contact with the board. Reloading through the card wasn't working, and eventually wasn't responding to Repetier Host to even try that route.
I was waiting on Atmel for access to this file as well. The webmaster replied this morning after I reported the issue. She stated that they are having problems with myAtmel and asked what file I was trying to download, but then never replied after that point.
With this, I can at least boot a windows partition and get the Duet back online.
