    If you have NFSU:R then how do you unlock the LVL 2, 3, etc upgrades in the performance upgrade section?? I can only upgrade my stuff to 33% Because the Level 2 upgrades are locked... How do I unlock them?

    I did a lot of research on DUO sticks so I could make an informed purchase. I did not run across any Sandisk 2GB or 3GB cards - not even at their website. Some sites have great prices on the 1g, but they don't have them in stock (Amazon has the Sony 1g for $104.95, but it says "not yet released").

    I got my Sandisk 1GB Yellow from Best Buy for $134.95 - it should arrive on Thursday. I bought a Sandisk miniSD 1GB from supermediastore for $79.95 (for playing movies on my Smartphone).

    Man you are thick, do you really need a play by play for this kind of thing? You managed to find this site, and there are many more. there are all kinds of guides, i know that you can figure this out. by the way the answer to your question, about playing games online is in your manual for your psp. you make noob's look bad. but i give you props, you did say more then "how do i do this?" NOTE: this is my first post..... i know how to search. Try google <~~ highly recommened

    p.s. sorry if you don't allow flaming. i just don't get how ppl can start a thread and ask every question that can be answered already.

    exactly... There are tons of sites for this kind of thing... I found one.... If you dont want to help... Then I don't want/need your input. Thanks.

    Anyway, I found a connection after I scanned and I got the SSID thing but I dont know how to find the WEP adress... And if I dont use the WEP thing then it wont connect.

    Do you mean the WEP key? If so, this is the encryption key that you used to setup your wireless network. You would have to know this if you ever setup a single wireless device in your house. It would be 10 or 26 characters in length based on 64 or 128 bit encryption (whichever you used on your wireless network).

    I believe any address settings should be set to automatic.

    Are you saying you found YOUR SSID or just some SSID? If your neighbor has a wireless network set to broadcast its SSID, you could easily pick up his SSID. Do you have a wireless network?

    oh, so I guess I dont need a WEP? And yes I do pick up my neigbors Wireless thing... I guess it just wont work because I got an SSID found at 100% and did everything automatic and set it to infastructure but no luck...

    Can anyone here please tell me if PSP video 9 capable to convert DAT files? I kept on being told by the program a message :
    "Transcode failed : Both audio and video streams cannot be found"
    Does it imply that DAT files cannot be converted by them or have I missed out something?...Please help

    Yep, if you don't have a wireless network you can't connect to one. Or if you have one with no WEP encrytion, you don't need a WEP key, but that would not be such a safe idea.

    Your neighbor's might have good signal strength, but they are probably running WEP encrytion - which means you won't be getting connected via their wireless network.

    You need to turn on the PSP after you connect it to the PC (via USB) then go to the "USB Connection" on the PSP and press X. This is one of the first items under "Settings", right below "Newtork".

    Once you press X you have initiated the connection. You should then be able to use My Computer to explore the PSP, download files from your PC, etc. It appears as a removable disk and is assigned a letter - just like your hard drive, memory stick, etc. In my case it is "Removable Disk (L:)"

    The connection instructions should all be described in the PSP manual. If you follow all of these instructions and still can't connect, you'll need a more experienced forum member to address the issue. Good Luck!

    "O" is the back button, to ENTER a component you must press "X"

    Sorry but I reconfirmed it a minute ago ,and as I did before,
    " O " is the connection button while " X " is for BACK.
    I guess may be it's a difference between an ASIA version and non ASIA version......I'm definitely sure it's the " O " for connection on my PSP................Wish I could post a photo to show you it is not a misjudgement.

    Have you tried connecting it to another computer? Try it on a friends PC - you need to start eliminating things it isn't (like bad USB port, bad USB cable, a wrong setting in Device Manager, etc.)
