Corruption mostly happens on DevHook firmware files. if this removes them, TYVM

keep your cards backed up and these programs are very useful.

i generally use one called "easy corruption fixer" myself, i cant see that this would be any different, but definately a recommended program to have.

this is not to be confused with corrupt-program icons, but i think you know that!

i find sometimes the memorycard will just get "bad" data on it. messing up files for emulators, or sometimes even the emulators themselves (for example) - causing them to load incorrectly or not-load at all... or sometimes they become difficult to delete. (cannot delete- file error - sort of thing)

i've had it a few times, its never very serious, just annoying. Thjis programs just run while hooked up to USB and "sort it out" - that's really all there is to it.

Some versions of DevHook has caused minor corruptions. Also the new gpSP GBA EMU by Exophase can cause the config file to get corrupted sometimes when trying to load a game that caused the EMU to crash.

A simple and quick fix to memory stick corruption is as follows:

1. Connect your PSP to PC via USB connection.
2. Open the command prompt
3. Type CHKDSK E: /f

E: is just the drive letter that the PSP shows on my PC. It may show as I: or H: or another letter. If that is the case just substitute E: for the correct drive letter.

This simple and quick command will fix any and all corruptions on your memory stick.

Enjoy!
