    everyone will argue what version of GPSP is better. I have never found one that everyone agreed was better. it's all about your own taste.

    I personaly don't know what ones better. GPSP MOD is the best running for sure but GPSP kai is the best with 100% full screen support. if you don't mind black bars on the side. then the GPSP MOD is by far the best and fastest

    you need a good working gba bios for sure and make sure it's called

    gba_bios.bin

    exactly

    EDITlus I notice the kai crashes on some games, and the mod doesn't. the mod will play some that no other ones will (megaman battle network games have emulation problems and won't run perfectly unless on MOD). but I want full screen support. so I play it up to the part it crashes on. then switch over to mod. get past that part. then I go back to Kai for fullscreen again. even though it is a tad bit slower. I like the full screen

    Well first off make sure that you are running custom firmware, and not the firmware that came with your PSP when you bought it.

    Firmware is to PSP, like Windows is to computer.

    I had the same problem, Just go to QJ.net, and find the 5.02 CFW.

    It isent Dark_Alex but its good, and make sure you get the 1.50 kernal download, the link will be beneath the 5.02 download, once your updated(make sure when your PSP navigation for update comes up, you use the hombrew version, not the official version).

    Then take the 1.50 kernal you downloaded, and leave it in the ROOT of your memory stick, and you can run everything you want.

    I have the functionality of my old 3.52 M33-4 CFW

    I have 5.0 m33-4 on my slim. I have tried the latest version of the gpsp build 132. The problem I am having is that the games are blurry on full screen? I know some people will say the stretching out, but with the gba emulator on my Wii system the gba games show up great on the 27" tv. Is there a way to fix this or a better emulator to try? Thanks!
