Got the the bit where it says

Download the custom recovery image and install as detailed in that post. Stay in recovery mode.

Ive ran the install-recovery-windows, and it says

If you're on the bllue screen, the only way out of it is to take the battery out. This is normal.

Yeah i was at the blue screen, i take the battery out and it just boots up like normal? Where do I install the ROM?

Cheers for the reply btw

If your Pulse has already got the December update on it, then turn your phone off, press and hold MENU+RED and then turn it on, keeping MENU+RED held down till the recovery menu show's.

If you don't have the update, apply it, then start again installing the recovery menu first, then the MCR rom.

Turn the phone off and then follow the rest of the instructions (there is some key combination you now have to do to get into bootloader mode, I think it's [MENU] button & [RED] button (bottom right of the front of the phone) and quickly press the power button). 

Anyway, I found these instructions to be good:

Sorry another question, I just booted for the 1st time and I got an error which said force close, so i rebooted then went to WIPE in the recovery bit and wiped all data, tghen reapplied the update.

Now it booted up and its got the french Boygeos ROM on? And it gave an error message about the touchpal?

That touchpal error is normal, just ignore it and have fun.
