i ended up doing it through a vmware machine, bridging the USB connections over to the Ubuntu virtual operating system.

The first thing you should try is just running The Nokia Software Update program on your Vista computer. Mine updated to a newer version and seemed to work just fine with Win7, so would probably work with Vista also.

Also, NSU doesn't seem to want to work using the laptop? Does it need to be a PC?

Run Maemo Flasher 3.5 from the start menu. Doesn't work any other way on my Vista 32 bit lappy. Flashed my N900 a few times now no problem.

Just doesn't want to work!
I opened the flasher from the start menu, typed in the correct text:
flasher-3.5.exe -F RX-51_2009SE_3.2010.02-8_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin -f -R
Then windows asks to allow the action, I do so, then nothing happens. Another command line just appears below the one i've typed...frustrating!

So you're in the Terminal.
Are you sure that you are in the correct directory where the executable file "flasher-3.5.exe" is located?
Can you post the exact output here?
Another idea; I quote Venomrush:
"According to this post ( http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...9&postcount=67 ), windows driver signing can cause problems. You either need to turn on the loading of unsigned
drivers or boot your computer to whole another OS."
