I NEED HELP.. please help me.. yesterday I played with my n900 and was into the filebox app and then i happened deleted some dictionaries and today when i reboot the n900 it didnt work normal... and i tried to hard reset it which i have did it manny times.
I tried to flash firmware and it worked but when i tried to flash MMC it didnt work..
I tried a lot of times to flash both firmware and MMC, but MMC doesnt reflash... i found out that when i try to flash MMC and when I press enter to start flashing, the usb logo dissappears on the n900 screen and that happens everytime i try to flash the MMC.. can you tell me what the problem could be please... I need help please..

1.- so... i uninstalled the OVI, PC suit, Software Updater, un case they are making a conflict.
2.- Unistall the cable driver, and run again the cmd, in -i mode to see the conection come up...
3.- with the device manager open, saw a few things: Disk drives show: SD1 Device witch I think is the nokia n900 under flash mode (i think this is the problem)
4.- plug the n900 holding the u, windows new hardware appear, i ignore it as advised.
5.- installed the cable driver that i downloaded from your link, a notice came up from this procedure during install, i ignore it as well, and finished the instalation. all god untill now.
6.- ? Nokia n900 (update mode) appear under network adapter with the question mark... all good untill now. command still in waitting...
7.- i did bought, cancel in one ocacion the windows new hardware windown, and the other time when trought with the offer to find driver... bought times happed the same:
looks for NOKIA USB ROOM DRIVER, BUT DOESNT INSTALLLED IT ANYWHARE, but the 2 drivers that get installed are: Nokia BB5 ADL PARENT, AND LOADER OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT....
8.- for a second the cdm recognizes the device!!!.. and this comes up:

Are you using XP? It may be simpler to just flash directly. Its simple and takes less than 5 minutes.

1. Download and install Flasher (maemo_flasher-3.5_2.5.2.2.exe).
2. Download the firmware file and Save to 'c:\Program Files\maemo\flasher-3.5\'
3. Open the command prompt. Start + Run. Type cmd and press Enter.
4. Change directory to the flasher program.
Code:
cd "c:\Program Files\maemo\flasher-3.5"
5. Connect USB cable while pressing 'u' key (details on the wiki)
6. Run the command on windows is
Code:
flasher-3.5.exe -F RX-51_2009SE_1.2009.42-11_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin -f -R
