To access recovery mode follow the following steps :-
1. Completely shut down your PSP (Not stand-by)
2. Hold the "R" button (i.e right trigger) while starting your PSP ^_^
3. You are now on recovery mode
It should look something like THIS

Which firmware does the game require ???
And which firmware are you on ??? o_O

I'm assuming you have a .iso game :)

Also, try this :-
Access the recovery mode of your PSP :)

Then go to "Configuration" and then in "UMD mode", switch to "Sony np9660" :)
And then go to the main menu of the recovery mode and then go to "Advanced -> Advanced Configuration" and "Disable" everything there :)

Which means you have an old firmware >_< (Most probably 2.71 SE-C, I think)

Try and update your PSP to 3.52m33-4 :)
HERE is a guide to do so :)

EDIT: If you want to remain in your current firmware, then insert a UMD and then try starting the game :)

I told you to update your PSP to 3.52m33-4 :)

Also, try renaming the "ratchet and clank rip.cso" to "ratchet and clank rip.rar" and see whether it gets extracted by winRAR :)
If no then most probably you have a bad rip of the game >_<
Also, I'm assuming that you have put these games in the "X:\ISO" folder of your PSP :)

Well, then, I think 3.03 OE-C may be having some problesm reading .iso files >_<
Better upgrade to 3.52m33-4 and see :)

Yes :)
PSP games require certain firmware to work ^_^
You can play 3.03 games on 3.52 or higher firmware :)

Do not do anything to the "EBOOT.PBP" file in the "M33CREATOR" :)
Rename the 3.52 eboot to "352.PBP" & 1.50 eboot to "150.PBP" and place them in the "M33CREATOR" folder :)

Well, brick happens when you "power off", remove the AC adapter, remove the memory stick etc. while the flashing process is going on >_<
It also happens if you do not press the "X or O" button to restart your PSP (They'll tell you which button to press, so dun worry) when the flashing is finished >_>

So, I assume you've successfully updated your PSP to 3.52m33 :)
And I also assume you've downloaded the 3.52m33-4 update :)

See, delete the file that you put in the "GAME150" and "GAME" folder by connecting your PSP to your PC :)
*Well, if you can't delete the file, then try deleting the file from the PSP itself*
*If it doesn't get deleted that way too, then you'll have to backup all your required data on your memory stick (Savegames, music etc. whatever you want to) to your PC and format your memory stick and then replace them*

When you download the file, you'll get a folder named "PSP" :)
You juz had to copy that file to the ROOT of your PSP memory stick :)
It's as simple as that >_<

So, when you put the M33CREATOR folder in the "GAME150" or "GAME" folder of your PSP, it says corrupt data eh ??? o_O
Well, what files are there in the folder ??? o_O
There should be the following files :-
EBOOT.PBP - The file that you get in the "M33CREATOR" folder
352.PBP - The official 3.52 firmware :)
150.PBP - The official 1.50 firmware :)
Copy the "M33CREATOR" folder to the "GAME150" folder of your PSP and not the "GAME" folder :)

Strange >_<
It works for everyone else >_<
Well, the only last option that comes in my mind is for you to format your memory stick and try again >_<
Backup all your data before formatting though >_<
