search the forum for vista drivers, I always go to BOTTLOADER mode before I flash a ROM, try it.

use the search, use the WIKI.

Are you running Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1?

i havnt had to bother playing around with drivers after a clean install of Vista and latest version of WMDC.
I've been able to flash directly from RUU, while phone is in Windows Mobile.

I'm running Vista and I have no trouble upgrading my ROM.
But I have installed the latest Windows Mobile Device Centre upgrade. Before that it wouldn't work properly.
You should be able to get it via the Windows Update page (optional software, I think).
If not, wait till the end of the month when SP1 is released, and it should be included in that.

Smile Thank you ranova!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you soooooooo much!!! I have been going CRAZY trying to update my ROM while in bootloader mode. (I could never get it to work that way.) I was too scared to try it while in Windows Mobile mode. I saw your post and saw that this was the way you did it and it worked for you. I tried it and hey, it WORKED!!!! Thanks again!!!
