Default Tried everything

Installed drivers so I can see my streak on my computer. But everytime I go to fastboot I get a ? fastboot when I type the devices command, and when I try to flash recovery says it can't find recovery. I'm running the stock honeycomb right now and would like to start trying some new roms. Any help would be appreciated.

Make sure Adb fastboot and drivers are all in the same location... Mine is in C:Adb...
Next when you are in cmd, make sure type fastboot. Then its
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

Yep copied all drivers and some drivers I didn't need into that directory but still nothing.

And I am still getting a ? when looking for devices, its communicating with it because I can command reboot but not seeing the recovery partition for some reason.

I really appreciate your help with this, I have done all of that but the drivers I copy from my DS7 does not have a setup.msi like his. it has a dpinst.exe but I get an error installing WINUSB

Default Finally got it

If anyone ends up reading this, I got it to work but the recovery.img didn't need to be on your internal or your external SD card, it had to be in the same folder as the flashboot. WOO HOO 3 days of searching. FINALLY done.

3. Assuming the name of the Field u unzipped is "Fastboot+ADB", rename thsi folder to ADB (I only rename the folder for simplicity when enter the path in command promt) also do some reading on how to install ADB
4. Now go to Start> Run. enter CMD in RUN
5. that should open a command prompt defaulted to C:\ Documents and Settings \XXXX (your could have different path XXXX here is additional path)
6. Now in Command prompt change directory to ADB folder (if u renamed folder in step 3) or Fastboot+ADB(if u didnt rename folder in step 3)
you initial path would be C:\ Documents and Settings \XXXX (your could have different path XXXX here is additional path)

now change directory C:\ Documents and Settings \CD C:\ADB \tools (if u renamed folder in step 3) and hit enter
now change directory C:\ Documents and Settings \CD C:\Fastboot+ADB\tools(if u didnt rename folder in step 3) and Hit enter
7. now your path would be C:\ADB \tools
8. C:\ADB \tools fastboot.exe (hit enter, that should give some commands that u can use with fastboot ).
9.Copy the File Clockwork mod 5.0.2.7 recovery.img(rename this to recovery.img) and superuser7.zipon to root directory of the internal Streak 7
10. now get your streak into Fastboot mode (look at Setting up fastboot for Windows -XDA wiki)
11. Connect your streak to computer and type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (sample what it looks like i command prompt C:\ADB \tools fastboot.exe flash recovery recovery.img) and hit enter
12. u should some messages on your streak something like writing recover.img(the process dosent take no longer than 1 min MAX)
13. now open the SDcarf slot cover and do reset pushing into the pinhole next to SD card reader. teh streak will be turned off and with thsi your device should be CMW enabled

Rooting:
1. assuming your device is turned off, get the device into recover mode (see wiki how to get streak into recovery) and select update from update.zip(user volume rocker to navigate up and won and power button to select )
2. then after quick 2 secs that should give additional options (cant recall options as I don't have my streak with me right now) select the option where it says like Internal memory and navigate to update.zip and select the file. process would run for quick min or so and now once u see the process has complete select option to reboot device and that's it u are done.

Move this to Generic section, should not be in DEV
Umm where are we getting the update.zip file that is referred to in the last paragraph? And what if CWM isn't mounting the SDcard or internal memory?
