Any ideas on that one?
Vista is still somewhat mysterious... but I think these are the key things:

1. WMDC 6.1 (maybe reinstall it if already installed)
2. Make sure sync drivers have a 2007 date (look in device manager)
3. Turn UAC off... also make sure your user account has administrator-level access.
4. Either put Apache in bootloader mode before flashing, or go to Start->Settings->Connections tab->USB to PC->uncheck "Enable Advanced Networking"
5. Use the appropriate RUU to flash based on your bootloader--Standard for bootloaders 1.00, 1.02, and 2.02 and x.04+ for 1.04, 2.04, and 2.05.

If it still doesn't work then you may need to double-check things like USB ports, cables, hubs, and other "hardware" type stuff.
