Hey guys, I should rephrase:

I know it's ok to flash with W7, but since I have Office 2010 x64 installed the WMDC won't connect to my phone and I can't browse the phone's memory contents.

WMDC says "not connected" in the bottom left.

Because of this I'm wondering if it'll cause an issue while flashing?

Office X64 working with WMDC is a known issue. It has been ongoing since the alpha release that I used. The only way to get it to sync is to uninstall office 2010 x64 and install the 32bit version.

Ok, so ya I searched the forums and I know that the Active Synce program is written in 32 bit which causes issues with 64 bit outlook. Basically, I got a new TP2 and I don't want to sync it with Outlook at this time, I just want to do a HARD SPL and then flash a ROM.

I just uninstalled WMDC, restarted and reinstalled and got the error: "Device driver software was not successfully installed" with no other info. If I go to device manager though, there's no question marks and all devices appear to have been connected fine. I can view the mSDHC card though, but not the phone's on-board memory.

I'm wondering if since I open WMDC and it says 'not connected' would this cause an issue if I try running the Hard SPL Unlocker?

So, I'm just wondering, how can I safely flash my phone?

NB 1: I tried starting Windows 7 with the ignore device signing option or whatever it's called, doesn't help.

NB 2: I saw some other user had to enable some C item in his bios for his P55 chipset. I have a P45-DS3R tough and double checked that the option wasn't in my bios. Also, my old TP connected fine but I think that was before I had Office 2010 x64.

Ok real quick i have windows 7 running windows 64 bit and using a version of wmdc 64bit that you can get from microsoft. the only thing using 2007. i have no errors and i flash my phone like a mutha F***** lololololololol

Ok, well I tried it and got the error where it asks me to download:

and then try again. It said I had to have active sync running. At least it didn't **** up my phone! Perhaps I should try it on my work computer with XP.
