Possible but tricky. Why not install Windows XP through Virtual PC and that you can flash your N900 through the virtual PC instead?

Just some advise for you to consider that's all :D

Thanks for the advice. but that seems way to confusing haha my laptop with xp went down and now I only have the hp touchsmart with 64 bit. not too sure how to do what you are recommending.. I def figured it would be possible by now:(... well easily possible

It confuses me reading all these post that flashes doesnt work on 64bit 7, i swear on my mothers life that i have never had to use 32bit or VMware to flash my phone i have 64bit windows 7 with flasher istalled and have used to on many occations to flash it. What is everyone talking about?

I tried with it about 3 months ago and it would never pick it up. only look for suitable device!!.. I dont think i could download the n900 usb driver!

I've used linux live cd + usb drive with flasher installation file plus images to be flashed.

Re: Maemo Flasher with Windows 7 64 bit.
 
A much easier way is to DISABLE driver signing in Windows 7. I have Windows 7 64-bit and I couldn't do a flash until I disabled the driver signing. EASY and SIMPLE!

Link: http://www.killertechtips.com/2009/0...ing-windows-7/

Click start and run CMD as administrator

Insert commands:

Code:

bcdedit.exe -set loadoptions DISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS

bcdedit.exe -set TESTSIGNING ON

Restart your PC and you're good to go.

Reverse commands are:

Code:

bcdedit.exe -set loadoptions ENABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS

bcdedit.exe -set TESTSIGNING OFF

Restart your PC.
