Problem with Rom Upgrade with Windows Vista

Anyone got any problem when upgrading Rom on WIndows Vista and using the Windows Mobile Device Center instead of the traditional ActiveSync? It won't seems to connect to the device again once the device is restarted into the RGB screen [after the starting the Rom upgrade process]. After a few seconds, it got the connection error code on your PC. I soft reset the device and no upgrade has been installed. Any ideas?
I try removing the connect via USB check box and use Mtty to check the connections to my device. But after I have done that, the PC won't connect my device to my computer at all... hence, I can't get use Mtty to check the connections.
So I have no idea why this is happening on Vista. It works fine when I am using my old XP computer when I upgrade to the test ROM. Any suggestions will be appriciated. Thanks a lot of your help in advance.

Looking to upgrade to Windows Vista? You might just want to keep an XP partition on your machine, as ROM upgrades via the normal RUU client do NOT work from within Vista, due to changes in the way the OS accesses the device. This also prevents IMEI-check unlocks from working on Vista.

Problem lies with vista, but I have read somewhere a solution is underway, or allready here...

Error 260 With Vista

Hello I am new here and a noob in the scene. I was trying to upgrade my Trinity D810 with my Vista Ultimate 32Bit. And I keep on getting the same error after going into the 3 Color screen (on my D810). Is there any solution?
And If possible can it not involved installing XP juz to get it to work? Cause I lost my copy of XP.

Goto www.trinityguides.info and it explains how to get it working in Vista, you need to install different drivers and it will work, I am using Vista and have the Dopod ROM on it

Thanks.
But I have been trying to follow the guide there.
But I can't seem to undate the drivers of XP on to my Mobile.
My connection from my PC to my Mobile is only through USB, and if I follow the guide, I cannot update the drivers as it ask me to not authorize USB connections.
I'm at a lost of what to do now.

I think you need to read it again, You should be changing the drivers in Vista for the HTC drivers from the USBAS folder, Then after you turn off usb connections in WMDC it uses the USBAS driver to connect. I found that I had to update the drivers every time I wanted to change a ROM.

Cant Flash / Hard SPL via USB....any ideas?

Some some strange reason if I try and hard spl / flash via usb method Windowds Mobile Device centre drops out half way through the process (when phone goes into boot screen) and the install fails because the phone is no longer sync'd with the PC....
I have never had this issue before....which is why it is puzzling me..
I get an error message on the PC saying: "Error [206]: Connection"
PC is running Win 7, 64bit if that makes any difference...
p.s do I need to hard spl each time I install a rom? I kind of do it now out of habbit......

Windows 7 x64 is the problem, you need hacked drivers.
update the drivers of your phone with the ones attached here.
You don't have to do HardSPL every time, only one time is enough.

Since when do you need a hacked driver to flash Xperia X1 using Windows 7 64 bit?
I've been flashing using my PC which is on Windows 7 64 bit, never have I used hacked drivers.

Thanks for the reply.
I have unzipped the folder, but am unsure what I have to do with the files....
Sorry for being such a n00b....

I have a Windows 7 x64 PC and got no problem flashing different ROM's on this thread. As what the others have said, you only need to HardSPL your phone once and then you can flash any ROM you want. You don't need any drivers as I have not installed any on my PC. Maybe your phone's battery is below50% during the time of flashing? If that's a no go for you, why don't you try flashing using the SD Card method?

Cannot Flash Custom Rom Error 266

As of now, my SPL is downgraded to 1.18, with RSPL and HSPL already installed. I downloaded Windows Mobile Device center, I'm running Windows 7 x86...
I always get the "not connected" message with the device center no matter what, even though I see Windows Mobile drivers in device panel. I've downloaded Deepshining Rom, double clicked on the ROM updater and first thing is it does not show my current image on the phone, when I keep clicking next, I get to the installation screen, with a 0% and then I get the Error 266 message.
I've restarted numerous times, not sure what is going on.

You need to run in XP both Zune and ActiveSync for the connection to take place.
