For Win7 x64, I use XP mode to flash the firmware update. However, I can't flash the eMMC with it, so, I use a Win7 x86 computer if I need to flash eMMC.

Hi - this is my first post on Maemo,org!

I had the same problem 'suitable USB device not found, waiting'. Essentially I was using Windows XP which would flash PR 1.2absolutely fine, but would not flash the eMMC as discribed in the post. I gaveup with my computer in the end and used another computer with windows 7 enterprise installed - this flashed PR1.2 and the eMMC wihtout any problems at all.

4.- plug the n900 holding the u, windows new hardware appear, i ignore it as advised.
5.- installed the cable driver that i downloaded from your link, a notice came up from this procedure during install, i ignore it as well, and finished the instalation. all god untill now.

Today my over the air firmware upgrade (PR 1.2) run out of space and my n900 was sudently bricked.

Power down the device and it kept rebooting, just briefly displaying the blue wall paper...

I then followed the instructions to reflash the device
http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_firmware

grab the 3 downloads recommended

I then 1st plug the device with the microUSB cable, and windows could access all my files as mass storage device, this was fine to backup my data.

But then when I tried to reflash the N900 as per the instructions,
turn off the device completly (remove batery temporary), and then holding down the 'U' key, plugged in the microUSB cable, windows detected the hardware and asked for a CD/driver and could not find the driver, this driver was not in the windows updates either.

My research took to the following download (driver for cable type CA-101):
http://europe.nokia.com/support/down...3-ca-70-ca-101

This package allows you to repair or uninstall, i choose un-install 1st, and in addition to that, i also removed the unknow device entry in the windows device manager, then i re-installed the driver again using this new package, however the Update Mode driver still did not install this time, as the driver is only seen/detected when you hold down the 'U' key and then plug in the microUSB, only then this particular driver is needed by windows and once again did not find it again, at this point i just run the installation package again while the device is in Update Mode and done the repair, a message came up saying that the existent drivers were in use (in other words the software wanted me to uplug the cable to be able to repair all the drivers), cache 22 here as I wanted the Update Mode driver to be installed, i simple choose to ignore and it skip the drivers already installed and in addition it installed the Update Mode driver, next second I could see my device manager refreshing all the drivers.

...at same time i had the flash utility set to detect the update mode usb connection:
flasher-3.5.exe -i
...and sudently the display/waiting message "Suitable USB device not found, waiting" changed showing that the driver was installed and device had been detect successfully and then i was able to reflash the device next.

Voila I got a N900 working again.

Hope this resolution helps others.

i seem to have the same problem. Everytime i turn the n900 on it goes to multiboot and it doesnt give maemo or nitdroid as options. Already tried reflashing with all the systems and cant get the usb to stay connected any help will be appreciated.
