Most (actually all) flasher software is designed for 9x class os's (i.e. win95, win98, winMe) but using the UserPort solution by lead (get it at <a href="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/cellularbase/files" target="_blank">http://groups.yahoo.com/group/cellularbase/files</a> ) you can use dejan flasher (or any other software using that method) pretty effectvely!<br />I still prefer to use Win9x for flashing tho as I'm constantly testing new software and can't be bothered messin about with userport<br />Personally, I use WinMe (would be win98 but drivers for some of my laptops devices are only available in winMe <img src="frown.gif" border="0"> )

Lol! No problem - but I can't stress enough that you MUST MAKE FULL BACKUPS BEFORE EVERY OPERATION, at least until your very confortable with flashing..<br />I must have killed about 4 test phones in the past few months I've been into flashing - luckily i've saved every one with a full backup flash from each!

Good luck, hope you pick it up easy!<br />Check out <a href="http://www.cellularbase.co.uk" target="_blank">www.cellularbase.co.uk</a> for a basic tutorial to partial flashing to unlock - any questions feel free to email me!
