yeah its most probably a fake memory stick like hexit said.
try using another original mem stick(the one which u got with your psp), see if it can read that.

guys i hav a original san disk 2 GB memory card and
a psp v 2.0.One day when i eas playind a video frm
my memory card it got stuck in between and showed
the message - THE VIDEO CANNOT BE PLAYED . So i pressed
circle to go bac and it was showing free space - 0KB.
I freaked out since i had more than 700MB. So i restarted
my PSP.After restarting when i scrolled over to music
or movie ot any other section , it did not show the
remaining space below like it was supposed to inspite
of my card being in the PSP it acted as if there was
no memory card.When i went to format my memory card
it showed tht no memory card is inserted inspite my
memory card being in the PSP and when i saw the light
which blinks when the memory card is read - i saw it
kept blinking and blinking and blinking and still the
psp system showed no memory card inserted.I tried the
memory card in a card reader and it worked fine bu my psp
does not read it .It keeps blinking.PLEASE SOMEBODY HELP ME ! PLEASE !!!

I tried another memory card - SONY - 32MB and the same thing happened.
It kept blinking . I also formatted the memory card using the card
reader but still nothing .Its the same.The PSP does not read and the
light keeps blinking.PLEASE HELP ME !!!

I think this is a kind of a brick (thats what my friend told me) the only way to get if working again is to install a mod-chip.(thats if u dont have a TA-082 motherboard).

As far as i was told there are two kinds of bricks:
1)the complete brick where ur psp is completly K.O.ed.
2)the one where the memcard reader is screwed but everything else works, i mean the only thing that u can do now is play umds.

afgunzz u know this happened to me too rememver i was askin u guys at afterdawn wat to do ?.But ive fixed my problem.In the end i found out tht i didnt hav a broken MS reader in my psp.Wat I did was - first format ur memory stick using a PC card reader then insert it in ur PSP . If the light still keeps blinking then turn off ur PSP , leave the card inside and take out ur batter .Keep the battery out for 5-10 minutes.Then insert it bac in ur PSP and turn it on.If the light still keeps blinking then hold ur power button and completely turn off ur PSP and charge the battery.Make sure u hav charged the battery to 100% (it takes about 3hrs) and then disconnect ur charger and turn on the PSP .Now the memory card will probably be read by ur PSP - IT WORKED FOR ME!!!

My problem is a bit diferent, i bought my psp, used a sony duo 128 magic gate, everything worked fine, memory card could be read and formated by psp, could save games etc, but then after a couple of times of using it i couldnt format it anymore with my psp, and i couldnt save games either..it says memory card cant be accessed...
Im able to format it with pc card reader, and i can copy stuff in to it..but if i use it in my psp, the psp detects it, reads music and movies..but can`t save games or format it..
Tomorrow i will try with another card and see if its a card problem...but its very strange...card seems to be fine...

Err.. i kinda have the same problem..-.- tho i received no error but when i opened my psp to listen to musics it couldnt find the memory stick.. i read this forum and saw a possible solution.. it didnt quite work.. err.. the "take the bat for 5mins" .. hmm well it seems like the same prob.. i even do have the 32mb sony ms pro and a 512mb sandisk.. formatted the 32 one then followed the steps.. didnt work.. well i was hoping i can find other ways to fix it.. coz the constant blinking without loading is kinda ticking me off.. luckily i havent lost control and turned my psp into a brick and stick it to the wall.. -.- need help plox!!
