Custom Firmware 3.80 M33 has been released

Okay. I'll warn all of you right off that I am a charity case. After all I just registered on this forum all of 2 minutes ago.

I have a fat (old) PSP and it is currently running firmware v. 1.50. I bought the PSP in HongKong before the US release date and well . . . its been a while since I've used it. I had emulators running on 1.50 but thats about it.

Because its been so long I don't quite know how to go about upgrading and installing a custom firmware. Would one of you mind telling me where to go or what to read so I can upgrade to 3.80 M33?

I'd like to test it out.

Thank you.

Ill help you out give me a minute.

Alright first you need to install 3.52 m33. now this is str8 from the read me
