Re-installing what?

As a side question, do I really need this? I want to run the latest SNES, NES, GBC/GBA and Genesis emulators and run PSX games.

If I do, ignore that question and answer the first.

Very much appreciate the help so far!

wow like 4 people hijacked this thread. wtf.
anyways, don't reinstall anything, just change your game folder homebrew to 3.xx in recovery menu under configuration.

Plz help me,I'm having a problem wid my PSP

I just upgraded my firmware from 4.01m33 to 5.00 as instructed in the tutorial, unfortunately I missed one part of the tutorial which is to insert the official 5.00 firmware to the update folder so that it will become m33

Now my PSP is stuck as being version 5.00, and It couldn't detect any of my games, when I tried reinstalling the firmware to 5.00m33, wad just happened is that the update data in PSP/games become corrupted when I tried running it on my PSP and I don;t know what to do now, so can you help me to fix this problem thx~~

so if I don;t have the pandora, if for example firmware 6.xxx is out, I can upgrade it to fix the problem should it??

since you said your psp is on official 5.0 your only option is pandora. upgrading wont do any good unless you have a pandora.

Hi, newbie here. I've got 4.01 M33-2 on my PSP-2001 (kernel 3.71 from what CWCHEATPOPS tell me). Do I have to upgrade to 5.00 M33 first then to 5.00 M33-6 (like the guide says)? Secondly, I play a lot of PS1 games. I use Zinga Burga's PsGUI221beta for 3.03 OE-A to convert the games. Will I still be able to use it (and CWCHEAT) for my PS1 fix? Thank you very much for the help.
