Thanks elendil. The firm ware is 3.40 oe-A. When the game is inserted in the PSP the menu says upgrade to 3.41 or some thing sorry, the PSP is not going to be near me for another ten odd days. Why don't the game manufacturers load a driver update option on their game Cd. I Googled around and figured out the game requires v3.71(or sumtin). Sorry to be vague as I said the PSP is not round and I have Zilch knowledge about it.
