This is a virtual PC so you need to pass through the USB each time you plug in-out the device (but you can automate it at the VirtualBox manager when plugged in on win8). If you have an old laptop or anything that can run a winxp and has an usb slot it may be more easy to use it.
It is an other thing, that the phone uses different drivers for fastboot mode, so you need to install them first (boot your phone into fastboot mode, then install the drivers) just after that can you flash the stock ftf.
Or if you want to use custom rom, you only need to flash the necessary kernel, then go into recovery, push the zip of the rom, install, enjoy...

I'm more then sure, that you need to use vol up + plug in USB for blue light for fastboot mode. This is Sony, not SonyEricsson. Those are tha last phones that used flash mode.2Okay, like 1-2-3
Steb-by-step instructions
1.
Delete anything that is related with the stock Sony things (PC companion and drivers currently installed)
2.
plug in phone, and automatize the USB pass through for the virtual machine at Virtual Machine manager
3.
install the drivers bundled with the flashtool
4.
boot your phone into fastboot mode (volume up and while it is pressed plug the phone into the USB).
For sidenote: you can turn off your phone like this: press vol up + power for 10 secs (until phone vibrates 3, 1 vibe is for restart, 3 is for shutdown). You can only go into fastboot mode when phone is turned off compleatley.
5.
If everything is set up (drivers, fastboot drivers, flashtool, stock ftf) shut down your phone (see above)
6.
start flashtool and go into flash, from the list choose the ftf you have copyed (I hope) to the flastool/firmwares directory, and it will say LT22i at the left column (BEWARE LT22i not LT22a !!!).
7.
click OK then you achieve the screen you posted, but with everithing set up. Press vol up and while doing so, plug in phone.
If you do everithing in the list, then the only thing that could be wrong is the virtual PC (Or you use USB3 instead os USB2 slot).
Enjoy.1
Use win 7. I just couldn't do anything in windows 8.1 back at the old days... Drivers seems to work, but in reallyti they don't.1Can I use virtual machine ?
Can't say anything about that, but in theory that shouldn't be a problem. But if virtual machine just for this use xp instead1
Pass through the USB slot that the phone uses to the virtual machine, then it will got realised, install the universal naked drivers (you can google it, it is on xda plenty places.) after the installation you can flash the factory ftf with the flashtool. I don't know that in fastboot or flash mode (I think fastboot) but try it. The virtual machine uses designated space, so you need to pass over the necessary files to it.
