Hi there, I'm Chrixxy new to the site but been lurking a while lol. I'm quite proud to say that I have managed to change the firmware on the psp from 2.60 > 2.71 and now to 1.5 whey!! (I'm proud cos I'm not the best with dealing with technical stuff like this!) I've installed DevHook v0.46. I've managed to also get a super mario game on there by locating to files i downloaded and copying them into the games folder. That seems to play ok.
There is a folder there for ISO files and I have to ISO games in there but I can not get them to load. I have been into devhook setting and played around a little but still no joy, on one occasion (when in firmware version 1.50 flash) a graphic for the game came up by a UMD icon but I couldn't get it to load as it told me "To start, you need to update the system software" I then went into the devhook setting and tried all the different firmware setting.. In the highest firmware setting (2,71) it told me I corrupt data on my memory card but showed nothing in the UMD section. And with all the other firmware settings it just turned off the PSP. From what I've read the other settings are not really to be played with.. im doing reboot xmb.. If theres anything else I can let you know in order for u to help then just let me know.
I'm getting so confused/fustrated

done lots of reading and don't seem to be getting anywhere fast. My plan is to give my son a psp with a load of games on for Xmas day, and I've less than 24 hrs!! please help! also if you could recommend/give links to some things for me to put on for a 7 yr old I greatly appreciate it! I got a load of lovely torrents for him.. Fingers crossed u guys can help me get them to play..
