Taking apart PSP Need help!!!

[Apoklepz]

OK, I'm almost done replacing my new motherboard...but I'm stuck!

I can't seem to get this connector separated...HOW IS IT PROPERLY DONE?

Look in the picture. It's the oval shaped red circle in the middle. That connector. Please someone help...It's late and I still have to put everything back toghether.

Thank you

Nevermind...Got it...Had to kinda Yank the sucker out...was pretty tight in there.

Thanks for the kind thoughts guys!

It's ready and working! Zion's put a custom firmware on this called PSP1.50>4life, with a custom gameboot and everything else in it. It's pretty sweet...I'm one happy dude, YAY!

I'm gonna have to go back in, though...I was so exited I had put everything back toghether, that I got kinda careless when I snaped the faceplate back in place and now the D-pad's right arrow contact will sometimes behave like if you were pressing UP...no matter...It'll have to wait till tommorrow...I really couldn't sleep having a New MoBo at my grasp and all XP.

So for those of you interested...MY PSP IS ALIVE AND KICKING ONCE AGAIN!!!!!!!!

Thank you ZION and the kind people of DCemu!!!!

BTW...anybody know what I can do with my old 1/2 bricked MoBo???....besides waiting for a fix someday?
