first of all, you must have all pops
(maybe from 3.00 to 3.71)
if you don't have, please search popsloader on the forums.

Run the game, while holding R.
Then list of pops will appear. just choose from highest to lowest until the game runs the right way.

It's like a mini-guide to running psx games on a psp.

I'll have an actual FULL guide written eventually, but I've got a couple other WIP's already that need finishing first.

That post should explain damn near everything you need to know about PSX games on PSP including POPS.

Also, just a piece of advice, I'd upgrade to 5.00 M33-3 if I were you.

You know I give you the mad, phat, superfly, stupid-dope, dumb-ass, retarded, bomb-sh*t props!
What else do you want from me!?!

Dark_Alex...mad love and thanks for giving this community so much and asking for so little.

Absolutely. I'm pretty sure there's a link on there for that 5.00 M33-3 updater in there. If the psp has CFW on it, no matter what version, it should be able to run that file straight up to 5.00 M33-3.

I don't think I'm quite following you.

You press a prx?

When you start up a psx game for the first time you should get a POPS menu. From there on out if you need to access the POPS menu, hold R while you're starting up the game.

Next consult the psx to psp compatibility website i have linked in that post.

Choose the suggest POPS for the game you're playing (if there is one). If there's not you'll need to do some trial and error.

Make sure you post your findings to help others out...just as others have helped you, me, and everyone else.

I'll bet anything your eboot is jacked up.

I know for a fact metal gear solid works b/c I was just playing it last week (almost to the 2nd sniper wolf fight).

Rip your cd's again and use the PSX to PSP converter I suggested in my post above.

If you downloaded the game you probably got a bad copy of it. Download an actual copy of the game (the 2 .iso files) and make the eboot.pbp yourself. Less chance of it getting screwed up. Follow the instructions in my post for the exacts.

*edit was for a couple typos*
