Cdwow or Ebay mate... If its Version 1.5 or 2.0 then you can downgrade and play games from the memory card.

Isn't it a bit unfair to accuse the company of giving you a raw deal simply because you were 'stung' for (legitimate) Irish taxes?

Re: Bad Deal - Lik Sang

Downgrading is being able to fool the System into Playing Files (that are Actuall Games) instead of having the Discs (UMD's for E50 etc..). Unfortunate in your case as all PSP's over 2.00 CANNOT be downgraded to do this.

On the Pics, Mp3s and Movies... Just use a USB Cable from your PSP to your Computer and it will load up the Contents of the Memory Card in the PSP automatically. All you do then is copy and paste ur files into folders (Named: Pictures, Music and Movies). Then just go to the PSP and Click on the Option required (Pictures, Music and Movies).
For Movies go to this website and D/l software..http://www.pspvideo9.com/started.html

Get the USB cable in PCWORLD, Game or Gamestop etc..

DrMoriarty -

I wasn't actually accusing them of a raw deal because I got stung, rather that I paid 383 euro to Lik sang and could have got it here for 299 - Hence the comment "Caveat Emptor! - It means "let the buyer beware" !! I thought my post was self explanatory, apologies if it came across as complicated.

Re: Bad Deal - Lik Sang

Breener -

Thanks a lot for info, pity about the version thing but sure hey ...

Thanks a lot for the advice on the music etc.

No problem - thanks for clarifying. It's actually the thread title that's kinda misleading, so I've changed it. OK?
