Newbie needs help.

I just bought a PSP Daxter Pack and hella UMD games (20), some of the games that I wanted to play is not on UMD though it's on an ISO/CSO thing.

Can somebody help me with a step by step process on how to play this files?

To sum it all up I have a ‘Ice Silver’ PSP system from the Daxter Pack with a system software Version 3.9 with the skype feature when I looked it up on the System Information. Do I need a higher version?

Short Guide
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Well since you have a "CFW",go into "Recovery Mode".By doing that turn off your psp power switch for 10 secs(or taking out your battery and putting it back in).Now turn your psp switch back on and hold the "R Trigger".Once in "Recovery Mode",go "Configuration" and set PSP Drive mode to -M33 Drive (No UMD)-.Exit usb mode and now you should be able to play if not.Do the same procedure but this time change it to original with umd drive.Then exit "Recovery Mode" and put a "UMD DISK" in your psp.After you've done that,you should be able to play.


NOTE:Now I don't remember much in "Recovery Mode" eversince my psp got bricked,im getting these from the top of my head.

I tried creating the battery using Hellcat's Pandora Installer 3.xx but it said "game could not be started (80020148)"

Thats because to make the memory stick with a psp it has to already be on a custom firmware. Search for the TOTALNewbieasyInstaller and use that to make the memory stick.

Advent forgot to fix the url so here it is and also I know he is not on CFW.that's why he has to downgrade it so he can.

Gah! I messed up again . I guess I gotta double check it when I do that.
That tutorial requires opening your battery up though.

yeah i hardmoded it b4 ordering a new battery now i have to play my psp through power cable.. The system software that i have now is 3.71 m33-2. is there a higher CFW i could use if so what's the best one out right now? and can i still play my cso/iso files after updating it?

3.90 is the highest now. With it you can use skype... but since it's new there are only a few custom xmb themes for it. There are more for 3.80 m33-5
