OK, so I've just ordered a psp FW v1.5 with a 2GB memory stick and i already got some games (iso's not umds) that i want to put on it so i need to clear up some things:

1.is devhook the best program to load isos?
2.can devhook mess up my psp?
3.can devhook run ANY released game?
4.which version of devhook should i use?
5.what psp programs do you consider a must-have?
6.i heard somewhere that you must insert a umd to the psp or else the iso won't load - is that true?

hope some of you will answer me.

1. Yes, Devhook 0.46 with 2.71 Firmware
2. No
3. Yes unless sony releases a game requiring a higher firmware above 2.81 (2.81 has been decrypted but not yet supported by devhook)
4. Devhook 0.46 with the 2.71 Firmware files (use google to search for the firmware files)
5. Devhook, PimpStream, PSPRadio

1.5 was the only firmware to enable full homebrew and loading of any game without too much effort.

This might change soon with the new 2.71 stuff.

Also a must have is the usbhostfs mod, which lets you load ISO images from your computer to your PSP via the USB cable, keeps you from swapping ISO images back and forth all day long, and you dont have to rip the ISO images to make them smaller to fit on your mem card better.

so the best option for me would be to keep my 1.5 fw and just install the full devhook 0.46 with 2.71 emulation?

also i wanted to ask what effect changing the cpu clock in devhook will have?

increasing the clock speed makes games run smoother

Plus, you need a UMD in for the Iso to load if it requires 2.00+ firmware or something.

1.5 is the one to stick with for now but even if you do upgrade to 2.71 or below you can still downgrade Smile

get ready for 2.71 to be the next Firmware to have Wink

ive never had any games freeze on me running at 333, you must be doing something wrong.

you cant autoboot into a game at 333, but launching at 333 from xmb is fine.
