Yea, lets try with a Ubuntu LiveCD - That could help, but you may also have a broken USB port or cable or something.

Using Windows XP SP3 here...
I fixed the problem by updating the driver through device manager. The N900 showed up on device manager with a yellow exclamation mark on it, so I right clicked on it and picked "update driver". It went on the internet and grabbed whatever update was there and my PC then recognized the N900.
On device manger it created a new device type called Wireless Communication Devices and under that it listed Nokia BB5 ADL Loader USB Generic and Nokia BB5 ADL Loader USB Phone Parent
My dos window then showed that it had recognized the device and started the flash process.
Suitable USB device not found, waiting.
USB device found found at bus bus-0, device address \\.\libusb0-0001--0x0421-0x0
105.
Found device RX-51, hardware revision 2204
NOLO version 1.4.14
Version of 'sw-release': RX-51_2009SE_10.2010.19-1_PR_MR0

CMT flashed successfully
Note my N900 didn't reboot after the flashing was complete as some tutorials have stated...so i waited a bit and still no reboot. In the end I had to manually turn it on.
It also took a minute or two to reboot which seemed like an eternity and I was getting quite worried. The row of dots appeared on the screen and nothing much happened for a minute or two.
Finally it did boot *phew* and I got the screen to set the region and time zone.
I noticed that flashing the device did not erase any of my data like my pictures, sound files, videos, phone contacts, sms conversations, web browsing history, etc - which I was hoping it might do. I wanted the device to be exactly what I first got from the store, but this wasn't the case because all my data is still there.
Hope that helps.

Even flashing emmc_Vanilla will not remove all of your settings and data, because all of those setting are stored in /home and are save from rootfs and MyDocs flashable images. Wipe them manually from X-Terminal or from within the application.

I had similar problem. I am using MS windows XP SP3. I could resolve in my second attempt. Went to device manager - saw the phone was connected in PC SUITE MODE. Just uninstalled that driver there. Reconnected the phone and my device was found!!!
I could successfully install the OS. I love N900!!!

Before today I had never experienced this problem, but both of my Arch, and a Windows 7 machine kept giving me this error.
Booting back into Arch with the cdc_phonet and phonet modules blacklisted I was able to reflash after a couple of failed attempts.
