HELP I need HELP. My PSP don't work .I bought a new game yesterday and it started to dowload something I didn't want so I turn it off . The next day the power would come on but the would be black. Then the power would go off.

Hi,
Your home button is stuck and needs to be free.
You have to open your PSP in the front face, and check the button and flex.
Thanks for using Fixya!

you can download a new version. ore download the ground hais to the toukijs and than start it over.

well, to run games on a memory stick you must have a certain psp hooked up to where you can play games on your memory stick, buying a psp from the store won't let you play games from the memory stick,you must buy a psp game,, im sorry

Umm if you plugged in a game and it started to download something well to tell you the truth it wasn't downloading anything it actually was upgrading the firmware due to the fact that newer games need newer firmware. The problem is that now you stopped an update by turning of the console while it was processing and you just activated the worst kind of hell in your psp. This is called getting your psp bricked. IF what you describe is correct then I'm correct and i'm sorry to tell you but the only way that you are going to be able to unbrick it is by using pandoras battery. But the problem with pandoras battery is that you need to have someone else with a psp v 1.5 or with a modded version.

Here is the place you should go to and you would just need to sign up and get all the info on it by searching its forums for Pandora's Battery.

i dont know downloading a game from the net is safe or unsafe ?

Thats impossible you had to try downgrading or something, you said you "bought it brand new from the shop", go back and tell them if you had nothing to do with it.

i bought my son a new psp at the end of january(2008) and he has used it since and yesterday when you put a game in it wont load(the disc wont turn) the psp comes on but the umd is not recognized on the game. i bought this at best buy how can i fix it? thank you j.j.

Formatting does erase all files man. you prolly should not have formatted. what folder of the memory stick did you put the games into?

Replace your battery or use a known good battery from a friends psp. That's a good place to start. Start at the power source first and work your way through the system eliminating the hardware parts as you go. PSP is very touchy so be careful not to brick it.

If you bought it new the warranty should cover it...send it back to sony. If not you may have to take to a repair center
