Now regarding the issues people are having...
I've personally tested these methods in XP, Vista and Win7.
On all 3 pc's all I did was install HTC Sync and download the evo-recovery.zip file. Everything you need to make this work in contained in this thread.
In fact, I went against the popular opinion and I only used the HTC Sync file that came w/ the phone on the sdcard. I didn't use the newest version w/ the newest drivers. Everything worked as it should.
Unfortunately, w/ different setups, people have different things installed that may cause problems. But, if you remove any trace of any file that has to do w/ HTC Sync and the drivers for your phone, then start from scratch, it should work.
That being said, if you're still having trouble getting this method to work, you should try SimpleRoot. If you're on 1.47, use this version -

Keep in mind, SimpleRoot basically does what I described in Section 5. So, if SimpleRoot works, then the problem was user error.
