Hi all,

I'm not sure what's going with my PSP, here's what I did:

My PSP was 5.03 Gen-A and I wanted to update it to 5.50 Gen-B.
So I donwloaded the 5.50 Gen-A file (I got the file from console discussions) and tried to install it from there.

I don't remember exactly what it said on the screen but what I can see from youtube, you're supposed to see a command saying that you need to press x to continue or L/r to cancel and then it will take you to the sony official download thing.

Well I didn't get that.

I didn't get ANY of those stuff, instead after a few seconds my PSP turned off.

I tried to turn it back on, but all I can see is the orange light (memory stick) glowing for a few seconds (the screen is blank) and then after 10 seconds it just goes off again.

When I had the UMD in the PSP, it makes alot of noise.

I tried to press the R button while turning it back on but no luck.

I just bought a pandora battery (I can't be stuffed making it anymore, I feel depressed!) and I hope that would fix the problem.
Thing is, I'd like to know if I can fix it without the pandora battery..

My PSP is the FFVII anniversary edition (not the japanese version, it's more the australian version).

Thanks guys.
