regarding the the maupgradeutnoid.exe, when your using it for the vry first time, you have to disable activesync first, put your device into bottloader mode, and put it ine the cradle... you could here a sound, wait till the device would be recognize and wait till a popup message telling you that the new device installed is ready to use and that's the time where you run the maupgradeutnoid.exe otherwise you'll keep on just getting that message that the upgarde is finished, well actually nothing has happened.
since, its your first time attempt of upgrading to wm5, you can use baupgrade.exe but be sure you have set the corect operator for your device. to know what is your operator info, just transfer the getdeviceinfo.exe to your device and run it, this .exe will generate devicedata.txt found in the windows directory of your device. tranfer it to your pc and read it from there, in my case I have an imate, my operator is CDL_01, remember this coz you will neede this when your upgrading to wm5.
in any rom that you can download in this site, there is an included bat file, setoperator.bat, and enter you operator info, after that your ready to run baupgradeut.exe with no problem... read the wiki for better understanding.. alwaysssssssssss read..............
