| PSP EMU guide | |

| --------------------------------------------------------- | |
| These hacks are intended for home brew only. I am not going to | |
| provide links for any roms or any tools for running downloaded | |
| PSP games. If you wish to know about how to run software to run | |
| PSP games, ask me personally and I will provide the information | |
| via email only. | |
| http://psp.dashhacks.com/ | |
| http://psp.dashhacks.com/ | |
| This website is the website I first used to hack the PSP. I | |
| found it very useful for finding the tools need to hack the PSP. | |
| Before I go into details about how to hack the PSP, anyone who | |
| wishes to know how to hack needs to know what firmware they are | |
| running. This can be found in the in the far left of the XMB | |
| under system information. | |
| The reason for this is because each firmware has a different | |
| type of hack. Now most PSP's can be hacked using the pandora | |
| battery if your using the 1000 and 2000 models. | |
| Once I have this information, I will guide you through the | |
| process of what to do depending on the model and the firmware. | |
| (the PSP go can also be hacked) | |
| So please post the model your using, firmware and then I will | |
| post the guide you will need | |

| site and not sure its the right thing for the site . | |

| I know it`s not illegal to hack your PSP but there are limits to | |
| what you can do legaly and if hacked incorrectly the psp could | |
| brick up into an unrecoverable state. Pretty sure as well it`s | |
| something Gamerdads wouldn`t encourage. | |

| It was moobit which wanted my help. Also as long as no files are | |
| hosted by this site there is nothing illegal at all. | |
| Like I said in my first post, I am not helping people hack the | |
| psp to play copied games. I am helping them unlock home brew on | |
| the psp to run retro emulators and play classic roms. | |
| As a few members have psp's, it would be easier for me to let | |
| people get in touch with me about it but without being able to | |
| advertise the help, it would be impossible for me to help them. | |
| Maybe the title of the thread might make people think this is a | |
| way to play illegal games. If it were to be worded differently | |
| then maybe that would help any confusion. | |
| Rename it "PSP EMU guide" or something on them lines. | |

| PSP EMU guide would perhaps have been a better title and as I | |
| said I know it`s not illegal to hack your PSP but the thing is | |
| this kind of info is available elsewhere on the internet I`m not | |
| sure it`s something we need here on the site :-\ | |

| Not that I am knocking it, as I have looked into this before. | |
| But I was sure that playing retro ROMS still counted as | |
| something that is not legal (unless you own a copy of the | |
| original game). I could be wrong tho, and may well pick your | |
| brain soon Marc! | |

| technically it is illegal to download the roms but that is not | |
| what I am providing. I am providing the use of EMU software to | |
| be used on the psp. Where you get your roms from is none of my | |
| business. | |
| I am going to start posting some links up to the EMU software in | |
| the next few days. As for the guide, its easier to see what psp | |
| and firmware is used first. | |

| Hi all, | |
| Sorry I'm late-been busy with family stuff... | |
| Marc-thanks for the advice in the post so far.:) | |
| Nutsy&macca-thanks for the concern-good work youre right we do | |
| have to be careful about these things. I an confirm it was me | |
| who asked Marc on twitter how to run homebrew so it's my fault | |
| re the confusion about the post. (Sorry Marc!). | |
| As a retrohead, I'm just fascinated by te homebrew | |
| community-bedroom programmers just like in the days of the | |
| Spectrum! ;) | |
| And yes you are all right-it's not illegal to run homebrew (I | |
| believe Sony arnt keen themselves hence your warranty is void, | |
| but they don't make the law, much as large corporations like to | |
| think they do lol). | |
| If someone wants to run retro stuff (not PSP or current gen | |
| stuff-that is naughty) then its a grey area depending on the | |
| original location of the manufacturer at the time of the games | |
| release back in the day. | |
| Macca is right too-I believe the guidance is that you can't | |
| download the rom, but its not illegal to play a rom-it's really | |
| weird! ??? | |
| I was thinkin of using backups of games I already own where the | |
| console/computer is a pain in te arse to hook up to a PVR | |
| directly, also tape based computers with 2 hour loading times, | |
| lol. | |
| In these examples, I have to plug the coax out cable to a VHS, | |
| back into a bao that coverts the signal to scart, into another | |
| box that converts the scart to red,White,yellow, into the PVR, | |
| and then another cable into the TV! :( | |
| In this example I'd have a tv out cable in the PSP-straight to | |
| the pvr-simple. :) I also show proof of the game package and | |
| artwork and me putting it into the console as part of the review | |
| anyway, so it probes I own it. I will of course check te | |
| legality of all this before I start making vids, but as far as I | |
| know it's backing up your software and your property the same as | |
| using a VHS back in the day or a blank DVD today... | |
