Problem w/Pandora+MMS w/DC v5 on slim OFW 4.00

Okay, I'm having a bit of an issue. A friend and I are trying to install some CFW on my slim running OFW 4.00

On Phat PSP running 3.80 m33:
Created mms including DC v5
Created Pandora Battery

When we go to put the mms and pandora battery into the slim, the green light comes on for like 1 second then cuts off. The screen stays black the entire time. Battery is charged and we tried 2 different batteries. Where could we have gone wrong?

DC V5 uses time machine ipl to boot from flash, before you install DC V5 it should have ask you which button you want to boot pandora or else it will boot from flash. Since your psp slim is not custom it does not have the correct ipl to boot that is why you are getting the green light for 1 second.

Install DC V5 again with the same MMS over writing the DC V5 files that are in the MMS. Look at the second sentence when you run the DC program , it should say something like hold down any button for some time so you can boot to pandora. Hold down a button that you want so next time you want to boot to pandora hold down that button and stick in your battery.
