Good news and Bad news

I decided to chance buying a 4 gig card for my PSP despite hearing mixed opinions on whether they work. I already had a 1 gig magic stick for my CFW PSP. Good news is, if you use a smaller stick first, and then when it works, simply copy and paste the files over to a bigger card (I only tried 4 gig) then everything works great :D)

Now the bad news. I had FFVII running fine on the 1 gig stick before, but now I think something has corrupted, either the game file or the memory file. When I enter a battle I had been able to play previously, now the same battle completely spazzes out when it starts; I'm talking multi-coloured lines on the screen. I've tried reburning the eboot from two different programs. When I try and start a new game, it won't start up the first cut scene anymore. I don't know if this is related to going to a 4 gig. The problem I had with the battle happens on the 1 gig now too. Hopefully this helps somebody or somebody has a solution. I got Xenogears recently, and it seems to run fine, no problems. The other FF's don't work for me either, but that's probably the firmware version I have (3.90)

If I have a PSP game in ISO format, what program do I use to make a CSO out of it? I'm guessing Autopop and Ice Tea are strictly for PSX games...if someone has an american copy of Crisis Core, could you look on the side and tell me what the code is? I think I might need it.

Have you tried re-formatting the stick and trying it again? If not that, check the Pops number you're playing FFVII under. I heard it only works until 3.71 pops and if you hold R while you boot up a PSX game, it gives you the option to change the pops number.

Yeah I actually think that's the issue. When I transferred all the stuff over, for some reason the pops info on what firmware I was emulating messed up. Will try again and update. At least we know an easy way to use big cards now :)
