NOOB having a hard time using Vista and a freerunner

[Andrew Chu]

Hi Tyler,

How are you installing dfu-util?  Are you referring to the installation 
of the DFU device driver?

Are you using the instructions found here: 
http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Dfu-util-windows?  It has been reported to 
work on Vista 32-bit.  I don't think anyone has tried it on Vista 64-bit 
  yet so it would be good to hear what the issues are if you are on 
Vista 64-bit.

Thanks,
Andrew
