FIXED: "The game could not be started." (80010002)/(80020148)

Mwasim1 · 05-27-2007, 01:38 AM

Ok I found some program online that works on my 3.40 OE-A and it rips the UMD games for me. but when I went to play them the "The game could not be started. (80010002)" message came up. Then I tried to play the original game (UMD DISK) I got this message "The game could not be started. (80020148)". So I went online here is what i found......

TO FIX THE PROBLEM FOLLOW THESE STEPS:

1. Goto Recovery Menu (turn off then hold R and turn on)
2. Configuration -> Use NO-UMD (Disable it)
3. Go all the way back to main menu
4. Advanced -> Advanced Configuration -> (Disable all of them)

Tell me if this helped................... if not then tell me what the error is and the ######## <- VERY IMPORTANT

You can check what the code mean HERE

In any and all posts put

what PSP you have PHAT OR SLIM
what FW you have
what you tried to do
what error you got (Code/Black Screen)
and any mods you may have done to your Flash0 and Flash1

The Recovery Menu for 3.80 M33-5 should look like this
Configuration->
.....................1. Disabled
.....................2. Enabled
.....................3. 1.50 (for Phat but needs 1.5 kernel addon) 3.80 (for Slim)
.....................4. Disabled
.....................5. Normal (Needs UMD game to play Isos) if not try Sony Np9660
.....................6. Disabled
.....................7. Enabled
.....................8. Disabled
.....................9. Enabled
.....................10. Memory Stick
.....................11. Enabled
.....................12. Disabled
Advanced->
.................Advanced configuration->
.................................................. .Disabled
.................................................. .Disabled

Go to the "Error Message Thread" by Apathy96. it should be on 3rd link on the forum. you'll find what the code means & how to fix it there

yeh i think all OE firmware users just dont have that option enabled cos we all know that it's not very compatible, and it's not hard to have a disk in the drive

How long does the error message take to pop up? cause with some games, I start it up and goes straight to a black screen and just sits there =/

the begginer · 06-08-2007, 01:23 AM

it should come up right away.

lommer · 06-08-2007, 01:24 AM

Do you have an umd disc in the drive?

Drewby · 06-08-2007, 01:42 AM

No, I do not... but if that's all I need to fix it, I'mma cry.

edit:
does it matter the kind of the UMD?
can it be a movie or whatever?

the begginer · 06-08-2007, 04:20 AM

not a movie a game umd or a demo one.

Karlos · 06-08-2007, 09:01 AM

The Sony demo discs that comes with some psp's works just fine, if this is what you mean by a demo one.
