hi 1st thing make sure the battery is charged. if it is put the magic card into the psp then the battery. a menu will come up, it sould be press X to install 3.71m33-2, press O to install 3.71 official, now u press X it will take a few seconds when it has finished u will be asked to press X to shut down psp, press X, put ur normal battery and card into the psp, power on the psp go to system settings aand format the normal memory card this will install the folder's needed, i can't give links to where u get the games but type torrents into google when u have an iso or cso game they get put into the iso folder on the psp's memory card.

Thanks...

"put ur normal battery and card into the psp, power on the psp go to system settings aand format the normal memory card this will install the folder's needed"

This is what I need to know too.. since most of the guides explain very well on how to create the Pandora, downgrade, etc. But I couldn't find the explanation on what next after installing CFW. I can keep the MMS seperate than the one that I'm going to use daily then. Thanks....

ok

when u get them follow this

ur pandoa battery will not be charged up when u get it so put in the ac into the psp then put the pandora battery into the psp leave it there for a few hours to charge.

when it has charge take out the pandora battery and the ac power

put the magic stick into the psp then put the pandora battery into the psp a menu will come up it should say press X to install 3.71m33-2 press O to install 3.71 this is the official, so u will press X to install 3.71m33-2

u will see lot's of stuff on the screen this is ok don't press anything don't take out the battery or card when it has finished it will ask u to press X to restart psp so press X then take out the pandora battery and the magic card, put ur normal battery and card into the psp go to ur system setting system info you should have 3.71m33-2.

now go to system settings and format ur memory card remember this will be ur normal card not the magic card, this is to put the folder's onto ur memory card.

now

I think i now get it. so when i have done all that i won't use the magic memory stick again. all the saved games would be on the normal stick that i formatted.
is that right?
i presume if i am using only the pandora battery, we just charge as normal when necessary.
thanks for the help..much appreciated!!

u will only need the magic stick and pandora battery if ur psp becomes bricked so keep them somewhere safe,

before u charge the pandora put the ac adapter into the psp then put the pandora battery in to charge.

the normal memory card won't do anything only the magic card will.

Why Do you bother any more if it's already an 3.71 m33-2 PSP?

This is all you need to run ISO's/CSO's on ur PSP, just drag and drop the iso/cso to the ISO folder, then, play it from the GAME Menu on the PSP.Also set the UMD/ISO mode to SonyNP9660 by pressing SELECT button in the XMB Menu.
