Installing PSP ISO games onto your PSP
1. Connect your PSP to your Computer.
2. Enable USB connection on your PSP.
3. Copy the CSO/ISO file into the ISO folder on your memory stick.
If you don't have an ISO folder you will need to make one
The ISO folder needs to be created on your 'Memory stick' next to the PSP and MP_ROOT folders.

4. Close the USB Connection and disconnect the USB Cable.
5. Insert a Game or Demo UMD into your PSP. (It must be a Game or Demo UMD, you cannot use a UMD Movie)
The UMD is needed in your PSP to pass the 'UMD Check' the PSP does when starting the ISO.

6. Scroll the 'Game' > 'Memory Stick' menu and you should see your ISO as one of the games on the menu.
7. Highlight your game and press 'Start'


Installing PSX EBOOT games onto your PSP
1. Connect your PSP to your Computer.
2. Enable USB connection on your PSP.
3. Open the PSP \ GAME \ folder.
4. Make a new folder and name it anything you want (e.g name of game).
5. Copy these files from the PSX game into the new folder.
Eboot.pbp
Keys.bin (some games won't have this file.)
Document.dat (some games won't have this file.)

6. Close USB Connection and disconnect USB Cable.
7. Scroll the 'Game' Menu and you should see your PSX Game.
8. Highlight your game and press 'Start'


Installing Homebrew onto your PSP
The folder you install your homebrew to depends on your "Game homebrew folder" option you set in Recovery Mode.

If your "Game Homebrew Folder" option is set to '3.xx Kernel':
Put 1.00 / 1.50 format homebrew into the PSP \ GAME150 \ folder.
Put 2.xx / 3.xx format homebrew into the PSP \ GAME \ folder.

If your "Game Homebrew Folder" option is set to '1.50 Kernel':
Put 1.00 / 1.50 format homebrew into the PSP \ GAME \ folder.
Put 2.xx / 3.xx format homebrew into the PSP \ GAME3xx \ folder.

You can tell what format your homebrew is in by looking at the folders it comes in:
1.00 homebrew has one folder, Its not really common to find a homebrew program in the 1.00 format.
1.50 homebrew has two folders, one folder will have a % symbol in its name and the other won't.
2.xx / 3.xx homebrew has one folder, most homebrew in this format will be only for custom firmware.

If you are unsure what format your homebrew is in, open the readme file that comes with your homebrew program.


Since 1.50 homebrew is the most common, this is how you install 1.50 homebrew on a custom firmware PSP.
Its similar for the other homebrew, but you will have to place it in the correct 'homebrew' folder.

1. Download and unzip the homebrew program into a folder on your hard drive.
2. Connect your PSP to your computer using a USB Cable.
3. Enable USB connection on your PSP from the settings menu.
4. Open your 1.50 homebrew folder, Its normally 'PSP \ GAME150' if you have custom firmware.
5. Copy both folders from your homebrew program into your 1.50 homebrew folder (e.g PSP \ GAME150)
Homebrew and Homebrew%
OR
__SCE__Homebrew and %__SCE__Homebrew

6. Copy any additional files into the folder without the "%" symbol.
e.g If its an emulator you will need to add your Roms / BIOS file.
Read the 'readme.txt' file that came with your homebrew to find out if you need any extra add-on files.

7. Close the USB connection and remove the USB cable.
8. On your PSP go to 'Game' > 'Memory stick', your homebrew should appear in the game list.
9. Select your homebrew and press 'Start'.


Putting Music on your PSP
1. Connect your PSP to your computer, create a USB connection from the settings menu on your PSP.
2. Open the drive letter your computer gives your PSP.
3. Open the PSP folder, then open the Music folder and copy your music files there.
You can put your music in a folder if you want it organized.
You can't have a folder inside a folder like Artist \ Album \ track01.mp3

e.g:
x:\
\---PSP
\---MUSIC
| Track01.ac3
| Track02.mp3
| Track03.wma
|
+---Folder1
| Track01.mp3
| Track02.mp3
| Track03.mp3

Putting Videos on your PSP
1. Connect your PSP to your computer, create a USB connection from the settings menu on your PSP.
2. Open the drive letter your computer gives your PSP.

MP4 MPEG videos go in the folder: x: \ MP_ROOT \ 100MNV01 \ M4V#####.mp4
MP4 AVC/H264 videos go in the folder: x: \ MP_ROOT \ 100ANV01 \ MAQ#####.mp4

You will need to replace ##### with any 5 numbers like 37626, 92631, etc, it doesn't matter as long as its 5 numbers.
(If you downloaded your video and are unsure what format the video is in, look at the start of the filename for MAQ or M4V)

e.g
x:\
\---MP_ROOT
\---100MNV01
| M4V13567.mp4
| M4V19345.mp4
| M4V54275.mp4
|
+---100ANV01
MAQ13687.mp4
MAQ48174.mp4
MAQ19287.mp4

\---PSP
\---PHOTO
| Photo1.jpg

- Choose 'Yes' and the wallpaper will be saved to your PSPs flash memory.

10. Scroll to wallpaper and press "X" and change it to "Use"

To change the color your PSP uses for its background when you are not using a wallpaper:
1. Scroll to the settings menu and then to 'Theme Settings' and press "X"
2. Scroll to "Theme" and press "X" and choose a color.
Original will make the color change every month.

note: If you are using a custom wallpaper, this will change the color used on the information menu.
(e.g when you press Triangle on a music / photo / video file.)


Joining Multi-Part Rar files
1. Download and install winrar from http://www.rarlabs.com/download.htm
2. Place all parts into the same folder on your hard drive
3. Right-click the first part and choose 'Extract to here'.
4. Winrar will open and extract/join the files into one file.
5. You should see your ISO/CSO file, copy it to the ISO folder on your memory stick.

If this is your first time playing an ISO on your memory stick you might need to make the folder yourself.
Open the drive letter your computer gives your PSP Memory stick. (like E:\)
Make a new folder called ISO in the same folder as PSP and MP_ROOT folders your memory stick should already have.

Note: ISO files may look like another winrar file. you can tell if its an ISO when you double click it.
If winrar opens and you see a file and a folder (PSP_GAME and UMD_DATA.BIN) then its an ISO file.
