Ok,
I was running an application to Security/SIM/CID unlock my phone and I didn't follow ALL of the instructions (yeah, taking a shortcut) and bricked my phone on the rainbow screen telling me I had a Flash Error and that I needed to try again. Problem is, I could not try again since the RUU can't see the phone unless it's in ActiveSync mode to start.
SOOOOOOOOO... I panic'd and did some searching on our friends forums (XDA-Developers) and found this little Gem that got me out of the bind:
Original Post here:

1. Stop ActiveSync, by Task Manager (press Ctrl + Alt + Delete)
kill two processes rapimgr.exe and wcescomm.exe
2. Connect the USB Cable
3. Run mtty and Choose USB in 'PORT' (Edit: The original post showed something else, but for the Fuze, just choose USB)
4. type "set 16 0" without the quotes to tell boot loader to boot the OS after reset.
5. type "task 8" to get your device formatted
6. type "task 0" to ask your device reboot I did not have to do this step as the step above this one rebooted my phone and it came back to life!!
7. take the device out of the cradle, and manually reset it if it does not do that already.
You can download the MTTY application from the original post above.
Hope this helps if anyone brick's their phone with a bad ROM Flash!
