It is not the memory card problem, I put my card on my friend psp and it work. I put my friend memory card on my psp and it also have this same problem..pls help!

 

Alright,

If you have custom frimware install go into the recovery menue and format and reset your flash1. this should fix your probelm.

To get to recovery:

-Turn off the PSP
-turn is back on while holding the R button
-scroll down to Advanced
-than scroll down to Format Flash1 and reset settings

 

my firmware is 3.40 oe-a is it OK

 

Yes it's ok just reset flash1 using that way or go to System Settings and select Reset/Restore Default Settings.

 

Hi.. I quite new in this. Iside my psps, when I go to advance - toggle USB. I also cannot find the sytem setting in the list. Sorry..I quite noob in this. By the way, the firmware, I using is 3.40oe-a. sorry for the trouble.

 

The system settings isn't in the recovery menu, it's in xmb (normal screen)...

 

Hi Pogi,

My Psp (after I hold L).. I just direct go to Recovery mode.
There don't have any option for me to choose to go to main menu, ever I try to move around..I also cannot find the way out.

I Know that I quite trouble to ask how to get to main menu.
But anyway, I quite appriacate all of your help till now.
Later..I will google around to find out hot to go to the main menu.

Anyway, POgi..thanks for your help...
Appriacate it..

 

Have you tried turning on your psp WITHOUT PRESSING any buttons? That should get you to XMB (aka Main Menu/Cross Media Bar).

 

Pogi,

I try already, but unsuccessful. It back to PSP main menu. Sigh...
Anyway... thanks for your prompt reply.

 

What? Did you manage to find the main menu?

 

I not manage to find the main menu. Sorry for the confusing .

 

@pogi- dude you're confusing the fck out of him.

listen buddy, main menu is the screen you see as soon as psp turn on. you kno with all icon such as internet and music and video ......... comprende amigo?

simply go to system settings ---> reset default settings

done!

 

John,
I have try to restore default setting..but unsuccessful also.

Thanks John and Pogi for your reply. Appriacted it.

Anyway.. later I will go to the Gameshop(S'pore) for help.

Thanks guys...

 

Format the memory stick with another PSP (if it recognizes it) and try again on your PSP. Note that it will delete ALL your data including Gamesaves.

 

try already..but also unsuccessful..p

 

Can another PSP recognize it???

 

previously.. I have try already.. still unsuccessful...

 

So its the memory card... try formatting it with a card reader or another thing that supports it.

 

pogi,

what i means..i try my memory card at my friend psp but it cn detect it. When I try his memory card at my own psp, it cannot detect it.

Anyway, I do have format my memory card already and have try it, but my psp cannot detect also.

Later, when I go to Gameshop.. I will find out what is my problem..then will revert back.

 

It's most likely your firmware or PSP most likely of the two: your PSP.
