    Just extract the contents of the image you used onto the USB stick, and run the setup.exe from the computer.

    No point in fucking around with booting from USB, unless you are somehow unable to run it.

    I know this may sound foolish and long... but you could take out the hard drive put it in a PS3 (if you have one) and format it from there.
    Why dont we start comparing psp to a fucking fridge ? ours has a lcd built in ....
    The I-phone & DS are for weak minded fools that like crap Graphics and mundane sound
