hmm this isn't working and I did read the readme, infact the programs don't even load up (the DOS ones) they appear for half a second and shut down.

you need the cygwin1.dll that is not provide with the tool.

just copy it in the folder and it works fine.

try to do it in cmd mode (start->run->cmd.exe)

I read this script, here's what it does:

Unpacks eboot

Removes images/icons/etc. and clears out existing PARAM.SFO (this may still leave the default icon? not sure)

Makes new param file

Re-packs eboot

And it is NOT the same thing as the SeiPSPTool (i.e. convert 1.5 eboot to 1.0) So you still need THAT program (easily found on google) to convert eboots to 1.0 format before doing this. Also this isn't necessary for all homebrew, just some that doesn't work after conversion to 1.0.

THanks for that tip. Its good to know. I just still don't understand what is better with 2.71 SE? Wouldn't having a true 1.50 PSP be better since you can emulate 2.71 with DevHook? I am not seeing the BENEFITS of 2.71 SE.

Depends on your usage of 2.71, if you use it alot, then its worth it, as you don't have to continually swap.
