I seem to be having some problems getting this to work. I first installed the USB drivers mentioned in this thread. The phone is then able to connect to Windows Vista without issue in debug mode. However when attempting to run the batch file in either zip KMS or the ShabbyPrevailRoot it appears to fail. I have tried both with the SD card completely out of the device and also with the SD card in but unmounted.
Output from the KMS zip batch file:
Code:

Is there something I am overlooking outside of the steps detailed in this thread or readme file? I think when I did my dad's droid 2 I had to set it to PC mode somewhere but haven't seen that on this device.
