installing cfw questions

[duker733]

Alright I have a psp slim with the newest 4.05 firmware on it. I have a pandora battery coming for it. Unable to find an exact answer to my question by searching I figured I'd ask it here.

I want to install cfw so I can run emulation software and play my backed up umd games off my memory stick. What would be the best cfw to use for what I want to do?

Do i need to downgrade my firmware to the lowest version and work my way back up to the latest cfw which is 4.01 m33 I think? Or can I just install the latest version of the cfw from where I am now?

Thanks

no need to go down. just use a pandora battery and a mms to put CFW on your psp. if u have vista, use [RELEASE] PSP Grader v006 to make the mms. remember to run the program as administrator
