Question
QUESTION: my psps keeps freezing everytime i do anything then it turns off.This doesnt really happen to everybody i even called game stop they said i might need a new one.But i dont have the RECITE HELP ME

ANSWER: Try updating the PSP firmware through a wireless connection such as your wireless internet (if you have one) or a "PSP Download Station" in a store wherever a PSP is on display. If that doesnt work, something in your firmware might be missing or corrupt, in which case you will need to either buy a new one or send it into Sony for a repair/replacement.

QUESTION: i updated everything and it still freezes and i lost the recite so i cant get a new one or reapair what should i do?is there anything i can clean out?


Answer
Chances are that the firmware has been corrupted or damaged to the point where a complete re-installation is needed, so there really isnt much you will be able to do yourself. But first, try taking out the memory card and turning the LAN switch off and see what happens. If it still has problems, then your going to have to get it repaired regardless.
