First make sure the battery of your device is full. Then disconnect the power adapter.

Install the Nokia Software Updater and make it wait/search for N8x0.

Put the device off, connect it via USB to your computer and start the flasher. The flasher will wait until you switch on the device. Switch on the device and it's automatically in USB-mode as indicated by the USB icon in the corner.
Now, press the swap button. Put on the device. When it shows the USB icon on the top right you release the swap button. Windows makes a funky sound it detected a USB device, and it won't make the funky sound the device is disconnected again. Now update your firmware and you're done!

This is probably also well explained in other threads, howtos, and wiki.
