WM5-Device Will Not Load Operating System

I am having a problem that I hope someone can help me with.
I have an SX-66 with WM5 on it. The other day the device suddenly stopped booting. I can get the device to turn on, soft-reset, hard reset and get into bootloader mode, but whenever I try to boot the operating system it gets stuck on the colored stripe boot screen and just sits there showing the version numbers and nothing else. I have followed the instructions on the Wiki for downgrading but I still have the same problem. I have tried draining the battery fully and recharging but still no dice. I am even able to reflash the device with my laptop and it says it succeeds with the up/downgrade but then it just gets stuck again. If I try to install a 1.40 the device says that the flash is successful but then WM5 tries to boot again and I am stuck at the striped screen.
Can someone please help me out? Do I have a brick?

Dead Trinity after bad flash-Invalid Vender ID 294

At I was Trinity flash my notebook starts hibernation and now is impossible next flash.
After reset appears only first HTC screen.
Each next flash normal start, but only 2% progress and Trinity go off and in PC appears INVALID VENDER ID 294. I Try 6 different ROM.
If I try flash by SD card, appears NOT ALLOW.
By Active Sync is impossible connect.
CID I have Unlock. I was Flashing before several without problems.
Some Help?
I’m sorry for my English.

When you turn the device on what do you see: No GSM?
How far is it booting (splash screen/windows ce) ?
When you start in 3 color screen what version numbers can you see?
The problem you describe sounds more like you cancelled a ROM update in the middle. (e.g. when it was looking stuck but in fact it wasn't you cancelled the update or you romoved the cable or hibernation prozess stoped your PC)

After first bad flash Boot only to 3 colors screen.
Now (after next flash to 2%) go to Splash screen.
Off device is impossible. Still is on 3 colors screen or splash screen. I must battery take off.
Number in 3 color screen is:
TRIN100
IPL-0-50
TRIN100
SPL-1-07-0000

After the bad flash, you no longer got superCID, so you need to find the right rom for your device.
As long as you just get "invalid vendor id", keep trying different original rom's.

I was try original ROM and still same problem.
Only 2% progress...
I was try 11 type of Rom.

Caught in a loop! Please help!

My Sprint Diamond boots to the "Touch Diamond" screen, sits there for a while then resets, boots to the same screen, resets, etc. I've done a hard reset which appears to work but it resets and I end up back in the loop.
I have HARDSpl installed. I can get to the bootloader screen but I can't flash anything. I get 0% then the Error 262 no matter what I try to flash. I tried updated Roms, stock rom, etc. I ran through the Recovery steps several times with the same results. Always Error 262. I used MTTY and output shows two bad blocks when formatting then it says "Format Ended".
Does anyone have a suggestion I haven't tried?
