PSP Newbie needs help...

Been reading through the stickies, doing some searches & such...just having trouble finding what I want to know...

I'm by no means a computer newbie, just new to PSPs...

Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction here...whether its to specific threads or otherwise...

Can I play PSP games from the memory stick? Is there a tutorial how to do so as far as firmware, etc?

Any help would be greatly appreciated...

Depending on what firmware you have

It all depends on what firmware and what motherboard you have.

Well, which firmware do I need?

I'm no stranger to computers...routinely deal with FTA satellite, burning, daemon tools, etc...

well first you have to find out what firmware you already have by looking at the settings on your PSP because you may have to downgrade..

Go to system seetings then system information

Firmware = 2.71

you have to downgrade to 1.5, then, get the 3.02 OE-A custom upgrader made by dark_alex

Couple more questions...

I'm working from scratch here, virign machine & card...

In the instructions, it talks about HEN-D & then putting the files to PSP/GAME/ etc.

I'm assuming I'm creating new folders via the USB connection?

Yep that's right.

Have you Found out what motherboard you have yet.

if not check this and tell me if you have a TA-082 or not.
