Years ago I'd do a lot of PS1 emulation on my CWC-hacked PSP Street 1000. I got back into it this year, realising that any and all PSP-converted PS1 games I find online don't work on it any more - I get the error "the game could not be started FFFFFFFF". This error doesn't seem to apply to my old games, already on the system's SD Card or PSP ISOs, and my attempts to go into Recovery Mode have all failed, as holding R while turning the system on doesn't open it any longer.

Would appreciate some help as to what to do.

I haven't been on this scene in well over a decade, so I don't know what has changed since the heyday; I may not be of much help. Is the popsloader still a thing? If so, I would check there first.

do you have pops and popsloader installed? preferable with a collection of different pops versions (since some games run better with some pops versions)

Not as far as I can tell looking inside the memory stick. No files or folders with a name like that. It may well be there under a different name? idk.

@Francesca, what version of custom firmware are you running?

6.60 PRO-C2. It won't let me update any more.

and you will need the pops files but those are copyrighted material i cant link to them

and to play psx you will need atleast one version of pops installed and the popsloader will let you switch between pops versions

First, i think you should update your firmware to 6.61, that's the latest official firmware. Just to be sure you got the latest update. I don't know if you can download the system update from the system or website anymore (Since sony mention cutting psp service) or maybe try the web archive site, LINK HERE.

Second, there is the psp infinity which allows you to have persistent cfw for either PRO CFW or ME CFW. It works on both 6.60 (Which you're currently using) and the latest 6.61 (The one you can update to) Instructions about getting and using it are link here. Since it works on 6.60, you could probably skip updating to 6.61 and just run the infinity installer. But maybe that "Extra stability" can help. This should maybe make things easier and functional. Just my suggestion. :ninja:

    Also somebody is remaking it
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Reason how I found Newgrounds: https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/249365
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, the other game where I found newgrounds is new york shark

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Spoke to Tom Fulp the other day, if he can find his old Newgrounds site content like the mini Flash animations from the 2000's that played on the portal.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    So far no response, but he did say that he'll find them. Wayback Machine doesn't have em.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, atleast the 1999 versión of pico's school is avaliable (the difference between it, the 2006 versión and the 2016 versión is that the speed of the game depends of the speed of your computer and that it had the og soundtrack)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Another being Pico VS Bear, the original 1999 version before Jim Henson filed a DMCA takedown.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    The 2006 versión was made when the flash portal was made
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Many people thought it was lost, but was discovered that he hid it on the same page.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    https://tcrf.net/Pico_VS_Bear
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, although the "secrets" system where the game was has been removed. Also pico vs uberkids had a netplay versión that was shutdown, although the swf file has been found
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Nope. There are two download buttons on the same page, where you can download the original under a file called "bear.exe". "bear2.exe", however, is the updated game in a Flash projector. P.s. this was on the archived Pico page from 2000.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's been there for a long time, too. People who search for lost media don't look hard enough lmao.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, also the pico 2 demos used to be only for the newgrounds patrons but they are on internet archive too (https://archive.org/download/picos_school_2)

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Iirc the demos were removed from newgrounds in 2022
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, or well only the demo with mindchamber's style was on newgrounds

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Fun fact @SylverReZ: iirc one of the goals on the fnf Kickstarter stated that pico 2 would be finished but the Kickstarter didnt get enough money for that goal to be fullfiled
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, FNF sucks, their community is toxic as hell.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @SylverReZ its a single player game
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, Yea but it has a shitton of mods with their own songs and stuff
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, and quite a lot of people involved in those mods get cancelled
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Newgrounds wasn't the birth of FNF; rather, it was games where you beat up celebrities and parodies.
