It looks like some of the wires got stuck there when you pressed the Home button some time ago thus causing it to think that you're pressing it, when actually something just got stuck. You might wanna bring that to the store where you bought it from to have it fixed.

I dont know how to put d games in the psp

Hi jay_saske08,

Based on your concern, I suggest trying the following steps:

1. Connect the PSP to your PC with a USB cable.
2. Press the "home" button on the PSP
--> at the lower left of the screen you can see the home button.
3. Use the left-right directional buttons to find"Settings", then the up-down buttons to find "USBConnection" on the PSP.
4. Press the "X" button, your PSP should display"USB Connection".
5. Please wait until your computer tells you that a new USB devicehas been connected, then show you a new generic hard drive, usually E: or F:
6. Click on the drive letter that corresponds to the PSP unit.
7. Now look for ISO folder then copy your desired game (ISO file)into the folder.
8. When you're done copying your desired games, press the"O" button on the PSP to get out of USB connect mode.
9. To play the game, Use the left-right arrows to move to the gamearea, then the up-down arrows to find "Memory Stick". Chose thatfolder by pressing the "X" button again, and you should be able toplay all your favorite game!

Hope it helps,

Thank you for using FixYa,

Program termination suddenly pops up while playing

This window also pops up if you open up the umd lid, and if it just randomly appears it might be that the home botton is jammed up or that the lid is not closed tightly enough and any vibrations would make the system think that the lid opened.
