im simply trying to make a debricker batter/mem stick, and i dont understand whats not working.
these are the directions
- Connect the PSP to the PC with the Memory Stick inside via the USB
Connection.
- Format the Memory Stick using any utility.
- Use mspformat to format the Memory Stick logically.
- Remove the Memory Stick and disable the USB connection.
- Connect the Memory Stick again via the USB connection of the PSP.
- Manually create the PSP/GAME (optionally PSP/GAME150) folders on the
Memory Stick.
- Copy the "battery" and "installer" programs to the PSP/GAME
(optionally PSP/GAME150) folder.
- Copy the 1.50 official updater as UPDATE.PBP to the root of the
Memory Stick.
- Remove the Memory Stick and disable the USB connection.
- Run "installer" through the firmware on the PSP. This application
will create the firmware files on the root of the Memory Stick, as
well as msipl.bin.
- Connect the Memory Stick again via the USB connection of the PSP.
- Execute "msipl" application on the PC with the msipl.bin to write
the IPL to memory stick.
- Remove the Memory Stick and disable the USB connection.
- Execute "battery" application on the PSP to modify the battery.
- Congratulation, you are now in posession of a "Magic Memory Stick"
and a "JigKick Battery".

well, i can get as far as the mspformat..
ive triple checked everything, but when i execute the format.bat, the dos wndow opens and asks me to hit Y to continue... so i hit y, and thats it, the window immediatly closes.
I thought that maybe i downloaded a bad source, so i found another one, and im still having the same problem.
its a small mem stick, so then i thought that perhaps it formatted quickly, but when i went to execute the next bat file, the window would open for a second, then close.... i clicked it about 900 times and managed to get a few lines of text off it.
[59]blocked
[no partition]
thats it.
any ideas?

so i tried using a comand prompt window, and then i get
Format cannot run because the volume is in use by another process. "Format may run if this volume is dismounted first. ALL OPENED HANDLES WOULD THEN BE INVALID. Would you like to force a dismount on this volume?
what would happen if i force a dismount?
