SOURCE: PSP wont read games

Did you ever drop it? Usually if a PSP will not read UMD's, either the laser is dirty or it has been moved. If you dropped it, the laser has probably been moved. You'd have to take the whole entire thing apart to move the laser back, assuming you knew the position it should be in in the first place. Even if you have dropped it, the first thing I would do is to pick up a UMD drive cleaning kit for around $10 and try that. If that does not work, I would suggest sending it to be repaired. I hope this helps!

How can i fix the problems with my PSP

Sounds like you need to update your firmware and is causing all the games you downloaded (on the old firmware) to not work properly. The alternative is to re-download all the games that seem to be affected. If this doesn't work, make sure you are getting your games from a legitimate source otherwise they wont play correctly regardless.

My psp console wont recognise the memory stickt - have inserted a friends and it wont read it either?

If its more than 8GB it wont work. If its less than 8gb then put it into card reader on your computer and reformat the card. If that doesnt help or you computer doesnt recognize it either obviously the card is bad.
