WM6 Upgrade using Windows Vista

---

I've tried to upgrade my Wizard to last version of Faria ROM, but can't do it with Windows Vista. Now i'm running WM6 yet, but last time upgraded with XP box.

Is there any way to get this working? For my Hermes, i can put the drivers for boot mode from ActiveSync 4.5 and RUU works with Vista, but when i execute the upgrade soft for Wizard version 2.5.2, gives me an error like this:

Thanks for the help...

me too, I can't uprom on Vista (i used driver from AS 4.5). However, I install Virtual Machine (Parallels, VMWare Machine, Virtual PC 2007) on Vista and install Windows XP on this Virtual Machine and install AS 4.5 on XP and UP Rom completed, Good work.

Notice : don't install Virtual PC 2007, it don't support USB.

try right clicking on the RUU, and Run As Administrator...see if that does the trick...

Please give me more detailt

I am also looking the way to flash the ROM with Vista. I saw some post talking about VistaRUU but it doesn't work with my Wizard. Does anyone know or have any idea?

Thanks for the reply. I do this in the past (recent past jeje) but VMWare for Vista is still in beta fase, and give me same problems with the USB drivers.

I was thinking in RUU soft that works for Vista.

Thanks anyway

You try install Parallels on Vista (i using this Virtual Machine), good work to me. USB no problem. However, first, You must uncheck USB on Windows Mobile Center on Vista.

You can use pdocwrite.exe in Vista

I flashed OS only against stock T-Mobile 2.26 using pdocwrite.exe in Vista. See this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298613 it will refer you to this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293480. That one intros shelltool which is just a wrapper for pdocwrite.exe. It's part of itsme's awesome suite of low-level hacking tools available here: http://www.xs4all.nl/~itsme/projects/xda/tools.html

I didn't use the shelltool since I already had pdocwrite.exe. It's really fairly simple to do it either way.
