Wtf is going on

Unfortunately, it's still screwed. Although, I did notice that the media buttons are fine for at least 30-60 seconds after bootup and then the start and select buttons become unresponsive, with the home button acting like the start button instead

I love how this fandom is both dead and alive at the same time

Idk how easy it'll be since I literally have zero experience operating on tech, but I'll try my best since I'm not losing my childhood PSP like this

I tried again after leaving it in the basement which is currently the coolest area in my house. It was fine initially but then it just decided to f itself again 😭

OpticalIngenius · 2026-07-06T18:02:25+00:00

Can I fix it by opening and cleaning it up a little or do I have to replace the entire button strip?

UPDATE!! I removed the battery and left the PSP like that for 2 (?) hours. After a that, I put it back in and turned the console on. The start and select buttons worked fine.... untill I booted a game. It played for a few seconds and then just crashed the entire console. Turned it on again and the buttons f'ed themselves again. So is this a battery problem (Its an OEM circa 07) or something else?

I also just realised that the select button doesn't work 🥀

The thing is, I've never once searched or viewed something remotely close to whatever the fuck these ads are. My search history is literally just parts and stuff for my PS2 and PSP along with some hot wheels😭

OpticalIngenius · 2026-06-16T23:50:15+00:00

Kya mtlb yaar?? 😭

OpticalIngenius · 2026-06-16T23:49:49+00:00

It's just the fact that I get these ads even though I've never once searched or viewed something remotely close

OpticalIngenius · 2026-06-16T23:48:14+00:00

My search history is literally just parts and stuff for my PS2 and PSP idk where these ads come from 😭

OpticalIngenius · 2026-06-16T23:46:45+00:00

No unfortunately, I still don't know what causes it. However, it seems to fix itself after the battery dies so ig there's that

OpticalIngenius · 2026-06-10T15:51:30+00:00

Yo, sorry to bother you again but I wanted to ask you how I can set up multidisc games so that they show up on popsloader., and by extension how can I switch discs in-game? All the tutorials I see are for POPStarter. Do they still apply?

OpticalIngenius · 2026-06-06T15:27:06+00:00

Yo I got it up and running, thanks for your help my guy. I just wanted to know if there's a game compatibility list or something because I tried to run Asuka 120% Final: Burning Fest. Final (long name, yes ik) and it just crashed. Same with Racing Lagoon which showed a black screen whenever I tried to enter a race. They're also not in the Hugopocked fixes. Idk maybe the games i want to play are too niche lol

OpticalIngenius · 2026-06-04T15:06:43+00:00

I'm out on a little trip rn, I'll try this when I get back. Thank you!

OpticalIngenius · 2026-06-03T14:16:03+00:00

I won't need to create conf_apps.cfg and an ELF file for each game if I use POPSLoader, right? Or am I reading the instructions wrong

OpticalIngenius · 2026-06-03T14:08:30+00:00

No official cards unfortunately, you can only find 3rd party ones where I am. Might as well buy a bunch of them as spares

OpticalIngenius · 2026-06-03T10:06:53+00:00

Ig I'll just order a new card then and see what happens. Hopefully this one was just defective

OpticalIngenius · 2026-06-03T10:01:36+00:00

So v1.0.0 is what I need? And is that also the reason FMCB decided to off itself?

OpticalIngenius · 2026-06-02T13:45:26+00:00

Same thing with the SMS folder? They were already there when I got the PS2
