Let's idiot proof this.http://dl.qj.net/index.php?searchword=gpsp&ordering=&searchphrase=all&section=0&Itemid=2&option=com_searchYou will also need a gba bios to run it properly however, and different versions will need different bios to run, a google search can help locate those...Oh, and while normally the latest version I'd advise, the latest official build are in japanese, it's manageable but it can be daunting for newbs at this.Finally you need a hacked psp, of course :)

What's the folder structure?Did you remove the eboot file from the folder it was in?The eboot and all the files with it need to remain in a folder.And if your psp isn't hacked, don't bother.

I gave up on that one and i used this onehttp://endlessparadigm.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=17106my only problem is the bios, i tried using the one from the first gbSp i downloaded and it says i need to dump it again and make a new file with some check-sum stuff. i am so confused :|

like I said, some versions need different bios, so download another one that differs (so keep downloading, until one works).Also that one your using doesn't have the best compatibility, it's mostly for those with psp3000's running chickHEN

Ah, well I had no idea you were on a chickHEN enabled psp.So you found a working bios the, if you feel nice, prehaps upload it because each version of this emulator seems to need a different bios.Also, while I can't suggest any good games because you already have the best (the 2 golden sun games :) ) do stay away from banjo kazooie and "kingdom hearts" as they have issues on this version of the emu.Apparently kingdom hearts can work if you play a bit on a pc based emulator past the cutscene part (when 3-d shows, it tends to freeze the emulator)
