    Hi guys recently I just unbricked my PSP Slim with Pandora with a Softmod and PSP Fat battery.

    I'm very happy, the only problem is when I load my old 4Gb memory card to the Slim and load an ISO it freezes at the PSP screen. My Fat Firmware is 3.90M33-3 but my Slim's Firmware is 3.80M33-5.

    Is it because I have to update the firmware?
    Or do I have to format the memory card?
    Or I just did something idiotic.

    -Love Guy, who just fell in love with you guys.

    Does it only do it with that one ISO?
    Corrupted files?

    It freezes during the PSP load screen, even for my Firmware Update. WTF?

    What game is it? If it's a new game you're going to have to update your firmware to play it.

    Will the ISO play on your fat and not your slim?
    And are you files in the right place?

    The ISO folder is supposed to be in the root of your memory stick. If you just went to custom firmware on your slim make sure to format your memory stick again so that you get the proper folders in the right places. It'll do it for you.
    Firmware History:
    fat: OFW up to 3.30 - Lumines - 3.40 OE-A - 3.71 M33 - 3.80 M33 - 3.80 M33-5 - Stolen
    slim: OFW 3.60 - 3.60 M33 - 3.80 M33 - 3.80 M33-4 - 3.90 M33 - 3.90 M33-3 - Broke - 4.01 M33-2 - BRICKED - 5.00 M33-6

    I just tried it on my Fat and it works fine, (the ISO and games).
    It freezes only during a ISO/CSO/Firmware update. During the load screen.

    Is the UMD mode for you slim set on the M33 driver. That could be what's throwing off the ISO files and CSO files. Also for the updates, are you copying the UPDATE folder to the GAME folder?

    If none of that stuff worked then I think you should reinstall your CFW because something just isn't right and reinstalling would hopefully solve all of your problems.

    I did the pandora and reinstalled the CFW twice already, and I formatted my memory card twice. It works sometimes, should I have a slim battery and try it? I've been using it off the AC and sometimes with my fat battery.
    Also have there been any error/glitches like mine? I've tried searching the forums and found nothing.
