They are not Windows Mobile EXEs, so you want to run both of them on a computer with your phone attached and synched. Unlocker first, then go into bootloader mode and run the ROM exe.

Good luck, I was afraid my first time, but it always end well when you following everything to a t. I usually try to print the instructions and read it for a week until, I understand everything then flash following the guide.

Just be extra careful to follow the directions to the letter. It gets easier after the first time.

im using windows vista, do i need to have a program installed on my computer to sync it? like when i plug my phone in to my pc i can see the files but i dont have no special program installed on my pc, and also bootloader mode? so im not copying both exes to my phone and running them from there?

Vista uses Mobile Device Center instead of ActiveSync. You can download the latest version HERE.

No, these files don't go on your phone.

Get them onto your computer and connect your phone via a USB cable to your computer. If you haven't set up the Mobile Device Center yet, go ahead and do it. This will back up your contacts, calendar, notes, etc.

When your phone is done syncing, run the IMCokeMan unlocker from your PC. This will replace your phone's stock bootloader with a new one. Your phone should reset after it is finished.

Let your phone connect to the Mobile Device Center again and then put the phone into bootloader mode. To do this press Camera+Power and then use the stylus to press the reset button on the bottom of the phone. You should now be in bootloader mode with a Red, Blue, Green screen.

Next run the Custom ROM EXE from your PC. After it is finished your phone should once again reset.

If all went well you are done.
