Ok, i see alot of questions about installing emulators so i decieded to make a lil turorial about it. Ill use Daedalus as an example. This tutorial uses 1.50 firmware as an example. Custom Firmware users do the same steps, but drop the emulator folders into the PSP>GAME>GAME150 folder

1. Download the file to your hard drive. I use psp-hacks.com for getting homebrew files. After it finishes downloading, go to the location where you saved it

Next, unzip it to the same place where you saved it:

Open the folder you just unzipped and youll see 2 more folders. Since im using Daedalus, the folders are named Daedalus and Daedalus%. Highlight these 2 folders and right click, then select copy

Now what you wanna do is plug your psp into the computer and go to the USB option on the psp XMB:

Press X to connect the psp to the computer. Next go to "My Computer" and find the drive that represents your psp,it will come up as a removable drive. Double click it to open it

Next find the folder labeled PSP and double click it

Now youll be on this menu, double click the GAME folder

Right click and select paste from the menu and drop your 2 Daedalus folders here

** For OE Custom Firmware Users: Drop the 2 folders into the GAME150 folder inside the GAME folder**

Place your roms in the folder without the %. in this case, Daedalus has a folder already for roms, so go ahead and put them in that folder.

Now disconnect your psp from the usb cable and go all the way to the right . Its labeled Game. scroll down to the folder labeled "Memory Stick"

In the next menu, find the program. Since it was just added, it will be at the very top. Press X to run it

Finally, find your rom and run the game.
