Everyone knows the DS isn't in the same league as the PSP graphically. So you are an ass. :rolleyes:

It's been a busy day for PSP hackers, as a great deal of progress has been made in deciphering the groups of servers the handheld uses as it connects to the outside world. Among the discoveries posted on one random Geocities site that will probably be down by the time you click on it: an "update image" (about 14.5mb zipped) found on a site named dj02.psp.update.playstation.org.

This update image, as it turns out, is a PSP executable and boots up as a "game" if you transfer it over the PSP via memory stick. This update has a full install procedure and everything, although the EULA attached makes mention of the PS2 hard drive and the update itself crashes the PSP's internal software. Most interesting, though, are the new features this update promises in the install program:

Voice text reading

SonicStage music/news transfer (SonicStage being an iTunes-type program from Sony)

Calculator

Voice chat

Three PSP internal games

PSP mail software

PSP word processor/spreadsheet software

PSP web browser

PSP scheduling software

Bugfixes

The update file is off the playstation.org site now, but mirrors are available here and there.

The "word processor/spreadsheet" bit sounds like a bit of placeholder humor to me, so I imagine this is probably a test file of some sort. Still, it's important to have something to dream about, isn't it?

Nice

also i found some info on the cpu specs etc.. The host CPU block will also contain a security sub-block designed to protect data and help prevent hacking the PSP, its games, or the stored data.

i dont know if Dazzlas review mentioned this (or if its a known fact) (since I may have overlooked it during my excitement) BUT that little round disc underneath the Directional Pad is an analogue stick! I thought it was the speaker! Turns out there are two grooves on each side of the PSP (total 4) for the speakers.

I found that out by mistake.

First I thought the console was damaged because it was raised. WHen I checked all 4 units I bought they were all the same so I thought it was fine.

Then while playing ridge racers I swivled it and saw that I was able to control the car smoothly.

Thats great! TWO ways of controlling! (pardon the enthusiasm)

note: the above installation is obviously in Japanese, but will it work if my settings are in English. Has anyone confirmed that it actually DOES install? I mean it could be he just made fake pics and then just displayed them on the PSP.

Well...I:m sure it wouldn't matter if the stuff is in english of j since there seems to be native support in the system software itself for both, the big question is that statement that it crashes teh psp's internal software....I'd like to know more about what that means (i.e. crashes because it's overwritten, psp still reboots back up....)

also, thats a lot of software for such a short time, considering the psp doesn't run on a known os...although I could be wrong...

methinks the software over writes the firmware to a non usable state :wacko:

known fact sorry.

edit: and reviews claimed that the analogue stick position is not optimally placed. can cause fatigue to the thumb if used too long? well there is certain uncomfort.

9 hour marathon on Ridge says otherwise :p

    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation

      By FunkyMike · Posted

      Useful to know, thanks!
    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation by Taras Buria Story time. A couple of weeks ago, I experienced a very odd thing with my computers. I was trying to reinstall Windows 11 on my primary device, and everything was going smoothly until the installer performed the first restart. After that, my computer entered the boot disk selection screen instead of continuing the setup process. Huh, that's odd, said I, and selected Windows Boot Manager only to see it fall back into the same screen right away. Then I tried booting from the USB drive with the same result—the PC kept returning to the boot device selection screen, and removing the drive would send my PC to UEFI, again, with no way to launch Windows 11. I fired up my spare laptop, which has been sitting unused for quite a while, to see if I am dealing with a defective USB drive. Nope, Windows 11 installed and started without issues. After trying another drive and checking all the possible settings in UEFI, I decided to try disabling Secure Boot. Lo and behold, Windows 11 started as it should have been in the first place, continued the setup process, and reached the initial setup screen. Victory! After I finished the setup and applied all updates, I re-enabled Secure Boot, and Windows 11 started without issues. Some time later, I tried reinstalling Windows 11 on my laptop only to experience similar issues, with UEFI claiming a Secure Boot violation. I checked whether the drive works on my main PC, and yes, it installed Windows 11 without errors. I scratched my head, went to UEFI, turned off Secure Boot, and installed Windows 11 without issues. After that, I enabled Secure Boot. Note: I used the official Media Creation Tool app for my USB drive. Also, UEFI was properly configured for Windows 11, including no Legacy Mode, a GPT-partitioned drive, and TPM and Secure Boot enabled. From my experience, if you are dealing with similar symptoms, I recommend two things: If you use old Windows 11 install media, create a new one with the latest Windows 11 release, especially if you know your PC already has the latest Secure Boot certificates. If you cannot create a new one, turn off Secure Boot, complete the installation, download all available updates, and then re-enable Secure Boot in UEFI. Note that you need to turn off Secure Boot after installing Windows 11. Otherwise, the installer won't run, claiming a hardware requirements mismatch. I believe the problem hides in Secure Boot certificates that expire this month. Microsoft is currently rolling out new certificates, and maybe a mismatch was causing these issues for both of my systems. I am out of my depth to make a definitive statement; this article is flagged as "Opinion," as I only share my experience and some tips on how to fix the problem. If some of you possess deeper knowledge and understanding of the situation, please share it in the comments. As for everyone else struggling with computers not booting after a clean install, the two steps above should get you out of the pickle.

      I gave the tool a chance the other day to make a USB. An hour later it was stuck at 0% downloaded. I downloaded the official ISO, downloaded Rufus, and made the USB myself in 15 min.
    • what other retro software do yall use

      By Nick H. · Posted

      <Moved to software discussion and support> I've got fond memories of Winamp. Changing the skins, the different visualisations etc. But now I just need a simple music player. MSN messenger would be another one, MSN Messenger Plus (I think?) offered so many different plugins. But again, it probably wouldn't work for me these days. And then there is miRC. i think it's still going these days, but lord i had fun with that back in the day. Now it's mostly stuff like Discord, WhatsApp group chats, Signal, Telegram... /me is showing his age...
