@marcus Yeah, the PSP has 3 built-in FLASH memories (3 chips on the board). Once you've up/downgraded, the FLASH 0 chip has the firmware (think of it as the C:\Windows for windows), FLASH 1 has your settings, FLASH 2 has some PS3 related stuff, and FLASH 3 is unknown.

Also, Tekken DR has BOTH Ad-Hock and Network player modes. Its damn fun to play on Ad-Hock mode with a friend, though I never tried the Network play.

Tekken DR does have network play but it doesn't actually let you fight against other people online, I have read the review it is something to do with trading ghost profiles or something.

So Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas won't work it just gives me a blank black screen after the PSP logo, I think I need to install a more recent custom firmware version, so anyone know what is the best firmware version that will let me play all of the games no problem with netplay capability. I'm really eager to try out Tom Clancy online.

Anyone thinking of upgrading to 4.01M33-2, DON'T. I'm telling from experience, it's a really SHITTY firmware, all your emulators will stop working, Cwcheat will almost always crash, and games will randomly hang while playing.

I'd say stick with 3.71M33-2, but hey, if you really need Skype on your PSP then, well, whatever.

I am on 3.71 M33-2...and yes it is great, maybe it's just my tom clancy file, I'll try another. If anyone here plays SOCOM - U.S. Navy SEALs Fireteam Bravo 2 add me my add is Ketai.

EDIT: Fuck my analog stick is fucked up, when in game it always moves the character down it looks like it needs to be pushed back into place but I've tried that and I don't know what to do now...

EDIT2: No matter what Tom Clancy Rainbow Six Vegas file I try it still won't just loads up and gives me black blank screen.

Sony should really change the analog nub it's highly annoying...since most and quite a lot of people have trouble with it.

I might be wrong but I think there is a screw you can tighten. Check online for tutorials on fixing the PSP analog stick!

Yeah I've tried looking for tutorials but they all show you how to REPLACE it not actually fix it...Yeah your right about taht but I cannot try it the screws are dead tight and cannot be removed, I actually broke one of my screwdrivers just trying to remove the damn thing.

Didn't want to start new thread for this, but my old style fat psp with hacked firmware version 3.40 OE-A is having problems running some newer software (astonishia story 2 demo). Demo requires a firmware version 3.90 or later. can anybody reccomend a hacked firmware? So many advancements i'm not sure which is best.....

4.01 M33-2 is the latest. It's pretty good but ps1 games don't work anymore so you have to use that popsloader bullshit.

Otherwise, yeah, get that.

btw, WTF are you still doing using OE when M33 is better??

When I had 3.40 OE I didn't bother upgrading because I couldn't be bothered and it's a bit troublesome upgrading so much. Then when I upgraded my savefiles didn't load and didn't exist according to the games, but the savefiles were still in the memory stick, I've tried moving them in the memory stick but it still wouldn't work. So beware when upgrading, because you could lose all your game progress.

Thanks for the advice. I'm still using 3.40 OE-A simply 'cause until now it's worked so there was no point in upgrading. I'm gonna do the upgrade now tho. Not too bothered about gamesaves as i'm pretty much done with the games i have on my psp anyway, But thanks for the warning, SW.

Couldn't upgrade straight to 4.01 m33, had to upgrade to 3.52 then 3.71 and finally 4.01. All gamesaves seem to work too!

Well it isn't all the time but sometimes gamesaves will get lost it happened to me but I don't know why? I had to start all over again.
EDIT: I cannot get out the damn screws so I'm thinking is there a way of controlling the psp because the analog is broken and I can't take out the screws to replace the analog, maybe there is some way I could control the PSP using a ps2 controller or something? I really need some help.

I finally have 3.71M-33 on my PSP and I am loving this. Only problem is Kirby Super Star is REALLY REALLY slow but whatever. Anyways, I can't seem to find any playstation 1 emulators, unless the PSP can run them without emulators? I should test it out...

don't mind me, just postin' after a few brewskies

It's got an inbuilt PSX emulator so you don't need to worry about that.

You hacked it? See! I told you it was simple. What'd you do?

And yeah, just copy the PSX eboot, put it in a folder, and put that folder in X:PSP/GAME and you're good to go.

I always thought that if you put in the psx game .iso file into ISO folder it would run as well, though I have never tried it...

Okay, so I put Armored Core: MoA's disc 1 .iso into /PSP/GAME/ISO butttt it didn't work... I'm gonna try with a single disc game see if thats causing problems but maybe I'm doing something wrong?

It should be PSP\GAME\(game folder)

For example mine is F:\PSP\GAME\Alundra
Inside there is the eboot. I'm not even sure if .iso works for psx games.

What file type should they be?
Oh. Eboot.

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh....

EDIT: Where can I obtain me some eboots? PS: link me to another virus laden site - ANYONE - and i will be SO SAD it won't even make sense in the context of the situation!

EDIT2: Okay so I discovered i'd placed .RAR's into my game folder. when i extracted them they ended up being .img's, and also way too big for my poor 512mb

EDIT3: But yea anyways, thos eboots. I'd like a good site for them

. In the meanwhile i'll be searching on my own but I don't trust any websites anymore so I prolly won't find anything :/
