Flashing from Vista possible?

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?

No problems here, with Windows 8.

i have had a bad time running windows phone sdk and several tools for wp7 on windows 8... so just for my phone, i run a 32 bit windows 7 on a virtual machine inside windows 8

[Q] How to install Windows Phone SDK 8 on Windows 7?

I have VS2012 on Windows 7, and I don't like Windows 8 because of all the weird features.
Windows Phone SDK 7.1 installs on Win7 but doesn't support VS2012.
Windows Phone SDK 8 supports VS2012 but only installs on Win8.
Is there any workaround for this? Can I somehow make VS2012 support WP SDK 7.1 or install WP SDK 8.0 on Win 7?

*bump

Screw it I installed VS2010...

The Windows Phone SDK provides a stand-alone Visual Studio Express 2012 edition for Windows Phone or works as an add-in to Visual Studio 2012 Professional, Premium or Ultimate editions.

Can't put back OS on Dell PDA

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.
