Re: can someone please help me...?

first off it must be an apache rom if your trying to use anything else the best you can hope for is an error message if not a bricked phone i would suggest using the kitchen it's easy there are plenty of tutorials and you get a custom rom the way you want it
the kitchen can be found here http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=20492
good luck

Yup I agree with jabu....if you are using Vista....I strongly recommend running in "XP Mode"....or find an "XP" machine.

It's getting to where it's not a choice anymore. All OEMs are shipping w/ Vista now. It's hard for us to even find XP at our distributers anymore...

Re: can someone please help me...?

you have to turn off activesync first.. then put the phone into bootloader mode.. for the apache it is done by holding down (record+power+reset button) then run the kitchen your phone should catch the upgrade

I have an excellent custom made XP cd with all updates slipstreamed. I had a ltpto that had Vista and I even upgraded to Premium and it got worse so i formatted and loaded my XP cp and am much more happy but I do understand what you are trying to say.
