(1) you dont need someone with a 1.5 psp

(2) you need an unpatched version of gta (an old one)

(3) you should be ok as long as it doesnt say ta-082in gold letters in the umd drive.

(4) you need the full 2.5/2.6 - 1.5 downdater and can download it at www.psp-hacks.com

(5) i have done this twice and it has worked fine. i take no responsibility if ur psp bricks. although it should not if you do what the downgrader tells you to do.

Do all ta-082 boards have it written in there I thought ta-082's had numbers other than that in the umd drive and that the ta-082 number was not visible from the umd drive?I've only done the 2.0 to 1.5 downgrade-about 6 times.

in the top right corner, where you see a little green. if theres writing there, then you have a TA-082
