Ok I am wondering if my motherboard is TA-082 .

I have a PSP-1001k/98500 is what it says on the box, Ive looked at a few sites and have even seen the tut where you look inside the UMD drive best you can and I literally saw no writing at all on either side. And if it is a TA-082 is this bad? If its not, is this good?

ok open it the UMD drive and look on the left side for tiny writing that says IC1003. if it says this the it is a ta-082. if not then u have the good mobo that allows you o downgrade as low as 1.0 and yes its good because you can do anything on ur psp

Ok thank you. I did that and I do not have a TA-082. Woot!
