even on vista or win7 ya can give it a try for nowt, you have nothing to loose , the problem was connecting to the box and it not finding it on the ports. some say they had to try it time and time again b4 it actually worked, where-as on xp it work straight away, personnally i found problem flashing blackberry on win7 as it wouldnt find it on ports, but when i plugged it into xp it flashed it without a problem

I had no problem flashing my box with rs232 null modem cable on Windows 7 ... I think its the USB Null modem cables that give people the most difficulties..

USB to Serial adaptors work well with Windows 7 as londg as you have the correct drivers and select the correct port number.

Question do i need a tv to do this with or can I do it with out one. As my friends pc is in a shop but no tv there

You dont need a tv to flash if you know the image is fine. When you plug in at home all should be good.
