Hi all,

I apologize if this question has been answered already but didn't see it in my searches.

I just installed CFW 3.90-m33 on my Slim and have been trying to get Game Boy Advance emulation working. I did locate the BIOS_BIN file (or whatever the GBA firmware file is called) but with every emulator I try running I get the "game could not start" message.

Appreciate any help anyone can provide!

i tried to get a GBA emulator on a slim once, and you cant use the same 1.0 eboot that you can on a phat, you have to find a Slim specified emulator... i dont even know if the gpsp guy has even made an official one, but go to http://pspslimhacks.com/psp-emulators/ and they have one that works for slim.

Not to seem rude, but it's totally illigle to link to bios files online or even host it or say you host it.
It's like giving someone a link to an ISO you uploaded.

All I did was give him a link to the emulator :roll:

No, within the .rar file there is a file called gba_bios.bin.
That is an exact copy of a file hidden within the gba hardware itself.
This is kinda like a rom or iso.

Lol.
I can never be sure as to who knows or not.
But as long as he downloaded it before you removed the link then it's awesome.
