Ok dude. Chill out with all the insane amounts of double posts. It's against the flippin rules, theres an edit button for a reason. Use it next time.

It says in system settings I have the 3.71 but now when I go in to (My computer) and click drive "e" it says insert disk? Any 1 know?

p.s."zerocoolski" rocks thanks for the help much props!:)

Hey, I used this tutorial so far.

However, i made one mistake, I didn't choose option 4. I chose option 3 (for psp slims) how do I go about this?

I have vista on my laptop, will this tutorial work for me?

If not, is there a way to do this with vista? is there another tutorial just for it?

yes total newbie installer should work fine on vista...in fact i think its one of two programs that will operate properly on vista.

yea that and minesweeper

lol

This does not work on Vista 64-bit. Windows reports that it does not support 16-bit applications after selecting option 4 and pressing enter. Any suggestions? Spare me your cliches about changing to XP.

It's rar32.exe that is the problem. Anyone know what this file does exactly?

I ended up using XP on another computer I own.

I am having trouble getting my batter open. I'm not sure what the "top" is.

"Label side up"? I'm guessing the label is the literal label on the back where it says Sony and has the battery model number listed?

You then make reference to the top, but what is the top?

Well, I managed to get the battery apart, but the cover is in no shape to put back on. I'll just have to tape it up with electrical tape or something. Or just toss it, because it doesn't work when I put it in the PSP. No green light. Nothing. There was a lot of cracking when taking apart the battery.

Anyways, what are my options now. I'll need a new battery. Maybe I should just buy a Pandora while I'm at it?

I've ruined my PSP while fallowing your tutorial (a risk I accepted in the beginning) and any help would be appreciated.

I am sick and tired of posting this message again and again on various websites and this is my final post. Please help me or i will throw my psp into the ocean. I have a psp 2004 version 4.01 and the only thing i want to do is to play games on it wit the help of a memory stick. I have purchased a sandisk 2gb card and a pandora battery. Please tell me what should i do to play games....i dont want to kill anyone i jus want to play GAMES.

i did everything as instructed but my screen does not switch on after i insert the mms and put the pandora battery in and press SQUARE. I mean the green light pops up but the screen is blank....in other words DARK

I used the Install DCv4.dat and I'm not sure what to do I've already opened and pandorized the battery now what?
EDIT-k I dump the NAD cuz I thought that was like a back up but not the psp isn't starting!?

This tutorial was written over a year ago, I was wondering if this is still the practice today when it comes to installing CFW to a Slim?

All you need is a pandora battery and a recent magic memory stick package.

will a 16gb memory stick work?
