I came across two things:

1) After converting my .ECM to .BIN and then to EBOOT.PBP , I tried to play it on my PSP without any popsloader. It showed a white screen that said "P.O.P.S." and a little bit of text underneath. I got the impression that GEN-A had a built in Popsloader, but to my dismay, the game wouldn't start. My screen turned black, and the PSP crashed. I tried many times with two different games, and got the same result. Does this mean it's not an actual Popsloader?

2) I began looking through Google for answers, and I came across something that I want you guys to see. It explains how to get Popsloader on 5.03 Gen and CFWe. Thing is, it doesn't say if it's for PSP 3000 or not. Here, take a look: Dark-AleX.org - Ver Tema - Popsloader Installation Guide for 5.03 Gen-A and CFWE x.xx

I get the impression that it -is- for 3000, but I could be wrong. Regardless, I began following the instructions and I downloaded Popsloader for 5.00 M33-2 as recommended. I copied all the files to SEPLUGINS, and now I'm at the part where I'm supposed to "dump" files from the OFW to copy them into the popsloader folder. I'm trying to dump 4.01 OFW, but I keep getting this message: "PSAR too big. Recompile with bigger buffer". What's that mean?

EDIT: Nevermind! Cheema's guide helped me get it all done. Thank you everyone for your help! I appreciate it. <3

P.S.,

I now have Popsloader 5.00 M33-2 on PSP 3000 with 5.03 GEN-A (FULL), AND IT WORKS!!! I'm playing my game right now!
