PS you CANNOT use Maemo Flasher 3.5 in W7 64 bit so your going to have to get to a 32 bit pc ok.

And how about using flasher 3.5 in xp mode??

I'm using windows 7 64-bits and installed xp mode. I heard it should be possible to flash my n900 by using xp mode. Although i haven't found out yet how this works.

Can anyone contact me and help me out please? While i don't have a 32-bits pc to use.

Virtualbox and Ubuntu. You can install 32bit Ubuntu in Virtualbox - even if you're using W7.

Not if your using a 64bit installation.
You MUST have a 32 bit xp to use flasher.

You realise what your saying here? install virtual box THEN ubunto (linux os) then if you dont know how to use linux you have to research everything to enable you to just work with ubuntu, i think far far easier to just go to a 32bit pc with xp and flash.

xp is kinda outdated... so i don't have any 32-bits xp pc at home.

i heard about xp mode, that this would work in w7 64bits. But is this false information?

Can i get it working on a 32bit w7 pc? I have a laptop with w7 32bits, maybe that'll work??
