Hello,
in some Threads there is recommended to flash from Windows XP.
Does that mean it works better, more reliable from XP or does that mean it does not work from Windows Vista absolutely?

I'm planning to buy a qtek s200.
Did anyone tryed to upgrade the rom using vista - i've read that active sync won't work with Vista.
In my opinion "Vista" do not require Activesync as it has some builtin system.

it does not work,use the shearch funtion in the forum,there is allredy several threads asking the same thing.
Only on Vista 32 bit imho...
The upgrade software does not work correctly with any version of Vista, so if you want to brick your device try it
Vista has a new Mobile Device Center that replaces activesync. Don't try to upgarde with Vista. I maintain an old notebook as spare running XP just for flashing purposes. Or install XP on a different partition and flash from there.
I Try To Do It , But It Cannot Upgrade.
My PC Uses Windows Vista Ultimate With Windows Mobile Device Center
I Have JASJAR With WM5
What's My Problem ?
Thanks.
Your problem is windows vista, the drivers that come with WMDC are not compatible with the upgrade program. You need to either use XP or get the drivers from Activesync and install them instead of the WMDC drivers.
Thanks .
But From Where I Can Download Drivers ?

get the drivers from Activesync

Do you mean install Activesync in Vista? Is that possible? Will Activesync run with Vista?

Okay, so I have read the wiki... I am using an AT&T Tilt.
The ROM upgrading sections on the wiki give very detailed instructions for flashing, CID unlocking, etc, but it's all using Activesync. Activesync does not run on Windows Vista.
I do have an old XP box I can use at home, but I was kind of hoping to take my laptop to work and do it there. My laptop runs Vista.
Is there a way to do this using Vista or is XP the only way?
yes, you can do everything on vista, here's my guide for flashing:

I think karhoe moved everything to his blog. The Vista instructions are embedded in the pictorial. I don't think you can SuperCID in Vista.
FYI, I've used the Windows XP mode within Windows 7 RC and it works great for ROM flashing since, unlike, Virtual PC 2007, the new Virtual Windows XP can access the USB ports.

I recently updated my Dell X51V PDA to Windows Mobile 6.1 and I wanted to go back to Windows Mobile 5.0 but the problem is that all my computers are not Win 7 and not XP so I can use the Dell rollback software to overwrite the 6.1 and load 5.0. I know when I use Win XP it works fine and it does complete the installation but when I use Win 7 it gives an error message on the computer after the PDA says handshaking with pc. Is there a way I can put WM 5.0 back to my OS and use the A12 rom?
Well I guess I had to use my moms computer that had Win XP and I did install the original OS for the PDA. Maybe the only way to do it was to use an XP system.
