I Think I Bricked My PSP

My psp isn't working anymore, but I'm not sure why. When I turn it on, the light blinks on for about 20 seconds, but notihng else happens. For about 2 weeks before this began to happen, i was getting increasingly frequent error messages and my psp would freeze occasionally. When it did, I would just take out the battery and put it back in and things would work fine. Also, gpsp wasn't working ... i don't know if that has anything to do with it. I'm pretty sure i was running 3.10 oea but i'm not sure. It could have been a later version. If anyone knows what happened, I'd really appreciate their input. Thanks.

did you try going into recovery menu?
and tried charging your psp?

Are you able to access recovery?

i don't know what recovery menu is... How do i get to it? And yes, I did charge it. Didn't make a difference.

take the battery out, put it back in, hold down the R button and turn the PSP on.

i tried this. nothing new happened. the green light just blinked on for a little wihle and then turned off.

umm. hold R before you turn on your psp. turn on your psp but keep holding R and see if a screen comes up.

What error message came up?

Ya, thats what I did, and i just tried it again. A screen didn't come up. the same thing happened.

Ok try recovery mode again, while holding R tab click the screen brightness button a few times, a menu should come up.
