I have been searching for quite a while with no luck. I always flash my phone at work because I use a Windows XP machine at work. However, a whole lot of site are blocked with my work's surf control so I can't get alot of cabs I need. My home PC is a Vista 64 system so I'm SOL at home.

My question is, how do you go about flashing a ROM on Vista 64? I always get an error when trying to install the ROMs. Something about upgrade the OS on the computer? And is there something like cab via activesync for vista?

Thanks a ton guys. :cool:

I'm using Server 2008 x64. No problems there. It should be the same as Vista x64.
You have of course installed Windows Mobile Device Center? It's Active Sync Vista style :)

I run Vista 64 on both my machines and have never had a problem flashing. You may want to provide a little more details on what your trying to flash, and what the error is your getting.

I'm going to try it again tomorrow and i'll report back with the exact error. It could have been the ROMs i was using maybe. I'm doing this on a Tilt.
