ERROR: CreateFile, error = 5
I am running the command window as admin mode so there should not be a problem.

Many thanks

It is expressedly written that flashing should be done on a 32-bit Operating System. 
http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_f...nd_Workarounds
It is technically still possible, but I would just suggest either installing a 32-bit OS for convenience. Or check out "Option 4" under that link/topic.
Hope this helps.

That is not the case for the N9. Flashing the n900 does not work on 64bit but the flasher version for meego does.
Anyway, alarm over and i managed to get it to work
Think there was an errant space in my command

^ your wiki is for the n900, he's asking for the n9 which works perfectly fine on windows 64-bit. i've flashed my phone numerous times without problems.

Reflashing N900 can also be done with windows 7 64 bit, I reflashed many times without any problem. But need to install libusb first

Yeah, N900 flashing works on 64-bit OS too (as mentioned in the Wiki) and have tried that as well, but just wanted to give the basic tips first.
I have flasher installed and run the following command:-
flasher -F DFL61_HARMATTAN_30.2012.07-1_PR_LEGACY_001-OEM1-958_ARM.bin -f
