did you make the video before or after you dumped the NAND?

if you made it before try the proccess to again to get to 3.80m33-5

also after installing 3.90m33 can you access the recovery mode (take the normal battery out and then put it back in and turn the psp back on while holding the R trigger)

if you can access recovery mode format the flash1 then try the proccess of installind 3.80m33-5 again and see if that helps

if not you will have to do the nand dump thing again and install 3.90m33 so you can access recovery mode and then try the guide stickied the say recovering a semi-brick slim and see if that works (note it works for fat psp to)

hope that all helps
