Hi all. I was wondering would opening a virus file or somehow putting it on the psp memory stick do anything?? Like with a computer, it gets a virus and if it's bad enough, you need to reinstall your operating system. So is their a way to do something with a virus file and corrupt something inside so we can reinstall the firmware?? |

Points: 12.59 Donate | | Would it make a difference if I left a copy of the 1.5 eboot on my stick? I think just in case my psp goes out on me and needs to reinstall the firmware it should look on my stick for the firmeware im guessing. I also keep the file on thier because my friend said that he and his buddies were over at this guys house and broswing www.gamespot.com on the psp and he got the blue screen of death and had to reinstall his firmware. So is it necessary to keep the file on thier or will it just go back to my 2.5 firmware? |
