    Excellent guide in the OP.

    Purchased a used silver slim, updated to OFW 3.93, and using the guide's tools and a phat modded battery (Ben Heck method) I now have CFW 3.90M33-2 running. All updates done on a Windows XP machine.

    Absolutely everything went off without a hitch, instructions were clear and concise.

    Admittedly I was nervous at first, but the installers took care of EVERYTHING.

    Thank you very much!

    Although I dont know if the same holds true for 3.95, I updated straight to 3.71 simply by following the guide. The mem stick prompted me to begin the install - and that was all I needed to do.

    Once the install finished I updated using the MUX tool to 3.90, but the PSX games I wanted to run kept crashing. So I just re-flashed to 3.71, used the MUX tool to update to 3.71m33-4, and everything runs great.

    The OP's guide is welldone and accurate. Following it should get you where you need to be.

    you are NOT suppose to run anything on official firmware. you will always get the "game cannot be started" error.

    We also have guides for the TotalNewbi installer and the others that will get cfw on your psp.

    yes you can use the psp original battery. this process is when you dont need to open it up and solder the pins. the videos are not fake..

    Maybe I'm the daft one but you need that step - so go slower when running it (?) Remember to type 'Y' then enter not just enter.

    I'm not sure how much DOS experience you have... Are you running the exe from the "c:\" drive directory. If you are in another "folder" you aren't in the right area to open the file. Also, you could try typing in the full file name "msinst.exe" Although that shouldn't be necessary. Hopefully you are using the Command Promt and not the Run Command.

    One other suggestion - turn off your anti virus and firewall (disconnect from the internet 1st) then try. Some have had problems w/ their anti virus and I had Comodo firewall screw it up.
