how can u put more than 1 eboot on the mem stick if it tends to over right the previous one. i tried puttin it in a floder first but then it comes out as a corrupt data.. lol this is easy but i cnt seem to get around it

i liked what i had so far, but it was a bit more work to play an .iso than i wanted, to i followed the tutorials on here to downgrade my 2.71 ta-082 to a 1.5, then i upgraded to 3.02 oe-a, then to b. the firmware is great, the only thing is is that my memory card seems a little cluttered. can i format my memory stick now or do i have to leave all of it on there? also in my game saves now i have two icons that simply say "corrupted data". WTF?

hey every one i am new to this psp modding. done a bit with the xbox so I understand for the most part how to do everything i have been reading. But i just have one question i have a 2.60 with the Ta-082 board and on several pages i have read that you cant downgrade this mother board below 2.5 firmware. but then i read this "2.71 Downgrader For TA-082 Motherboards (For Downgrading TA-082's To 1.50 Firmware)" in the ultimate downgrader faq. bout a paragraph above it they say not to take this board below 2.5. so my question is can i take my 2.6 ta-082 down to 1.5 then use alex's 3.02 firmware?

[julie]

looks like i need to update my thread again..

u have to update to 2.71, then down to 1.50, then u can go to 3.02OE-A then a lil update to OE-B

[thetwiztidfreak]

EDIT: I am having trouble finding a tutorial for upgrading to 2.71 know of any good ones?
EDIT: never mind I found a tutorial by Julie. thx again.
