    Default wallpapers! the silent killer?

    whenever you put a wallpaper on in 2.0> you are writing to the fregistry! this means if you do it too many times your psp will wear out? also as proof when you downgrade and then look through the bios with file assistant or one of those programs there is still that wallpaper....this is bad very bad! this means that you are writing to the registry and in theory if someone was able to put some kind of code into an image you could use the wallpaper function to brick your psp...

    but the question i pose is: is writing to to the registry too often with wallpapers dangerous?

    Cool

    Well, I believe when you are using PSP Personalise (<2.0) you should be overwriting the files. They are always named 01-12.bmp. What you are seeing on the registry should just be a record of the instalation/overwrite if I'm not mistaken. As far as the posibility of a bricking situation...well one more reason to learn how to make your own wallpapers

    motormaniac #1 there are no PSP Emulators at the present time.
    #2 you need to read the rules before you post or you may suffer the consequences

    on this site you dont discuss things like this (its kind of an edgy subject as it could be use for illegal activities).... and this isnt currently possible to play commercial PSP games on your PC anyways.
