Well mate, your drives name is i. Just double click that drive. You will now be in the psp itself. Click on the psp folder and then the game folder.

Hope that helped.

To clear things up-

Any PSP with the TA-082 motherboard, which actually seems to be limited to the Asia region (possibly Australia, for any Aussies out there) and tend to be upgraded to 2.5 or 2.6 firmwares.

I have looked in this thread and the success thread at QuickJump, and both have had at least one forum user with a European 2.5/2.6 factory PSP successfully downgraded to 1.5.

For copies of GTA:LCS, either rent it, or if you live in Australia, look for an original copy or a pre-played one. I haven't checked at the place where I worked, but I bought my Australian PSP in...March? April? Somewhere around there-and it came 2.01. So I was lucky...kind of.

I bought GTA:LCS as soon as I heard you could play homebrew on it via eLoader, and my friends were surprised since no one else had a 2.5/2.6 PSP with eLoader and either had the original 1.0 Jap PSPs and 1.5 firmwares running UMDLoaders.

And little did I know that later on, about three months later, that I could go about downgrading to 1.5 from 2.6! And so with glee, I downloaded the 13MB Easy Downgrader Full Pack, which is voice guided and contains all the files you need. I can say that I was not afraid with the procedure, and at the end of it, it resetted itself, and out came a 1.5 PSP, which I must say I have had some fun with, though not to the full extent of one of my friends, who has had a 1.5 ever since he bought a 2.0 PSP and downgraded.

To all potential downgraders, good luck!

Hey can someone PLEASE give me their 1.5 helper files in order to downgrade my 2.6. Im trying to use a 2.6 downgrader that requires 1.5 helper files. Im using this downgrader cause its more reliable than this method.

so if someone would kindly email a copy of their files to my email: cerebralocelot@hotmail.com it would be appreciated

ive been trying to downgrade my psp for months, ive only learned about the 1.5 version abilities when it was too late :(
