ok.U have a number of options but I have three:

1.Once you have your two folders (without % and with % folders)
heres what i want you to do:

For the folder without the percent sign name it to this:

XXXXXX 1

(the X symbols stand for letters of ur emulator.So in this case replace the X to VBAPSP if u want.U can name it anything u want jut make sure it has 6 letters.

For the folder with the percent sign name it to this:
XXXXXX~1%

Again the X symbols stand for letters.

2.Your second option is to go to the psp brew pack generator and before u checkmark anything look up top and click hide corrupted data files.Note this will not work for all emulators.Press generate and put it on your psp.

well thats what I got for ya.Hope that helped!

Mailas you forgot the last option: dont bother its not playable yet.

well its always nice to try.Sonic advance woorks a bit slow but I dont bother playing it tho.
Yo this is for everyone having trouble with corrupts too.This works for all emulators and homebrews just to let u guys kno.

whenever i boot up vbapsp it just returns me to the menu

your rom needs to be named something specific... look at the files within the generated folder... it says in there somewhere.

well uve obviously done something wrong.But I think I kno.But dude seriously.U dont wanna try it.
just lemme tell u that u dont want to try it.No questions asked.But if u really want to give it a shot then il help u out.

Heres what to do:

Put the emulator on ur psp for one.Get a gba rom.Turn it into a notepad.To turn it into a notepad right click on it and click open with.Then look for a notepad symbol and click on it.Then once your int he notepad click on file and save as.Save it somewhere where u no u can remember.Name it to ROM.Now move that file to the VBA emulator.Your done!If u have trouble installing the emulator ont he psp please say so.Hope that helped!

i tried putting it in as a .txt file and that didn't work so i saved it as [insert romname here].rom in notepad and put that in but neither worked

no.Dont name it .rom just name it ROM.

... mailas... are you sure?

yes im as sure as I can be.Ive helped alot of people out with this.And its worked before.I think theres another way but I cant really remember it.
Anyways back on topic, if ur still havng trouble man I could send u my emulator I use.It works perfectly!

I was having the same problem Geo was describing. I tried the suggestions made by Mailas with no luck. But using the information in his first and last posts I figured out what I was doing wrong.

Mailias said in the directory that is created it tells you what to name the ROM files, and he was right.
There is a file called
"insert rom.gba here"

So I renamed my ROM file "rom.gba" and now it works.

So just take whatever game rom file you get. (ex. AdvancedWars2BlackHoleRising.gba)
Rename that file to "rom.gba"
Then copy it to the VBAPSP directory on your memory card.

Hope this helps.

So I guess this means that I can only have one rom on there at a time?

i saved it as ROM and ROM.gba and neither one worked, eventually i just deleted vba psp so nvm

Maybe it is case sensitive????

Yes so far I have only been able to load one rom at a time, but I I have tried several roms using this method from a variety of sources.

Just as a side note--There is more than one version of VBA PSP out there. A google search rewarded me with three different versions.

theres two ways.Myne works and so does that one.Its worked before.Uve probably done it a bit more different then I ahve but my ways easier.If u guys want I could send u my own emulator right off my memory stick.
