emulators for psp messing up

[gameO_Ofreak]

i have firmware 3.10 OE-A i had teh psp genisis emulator running fine i even put a few psx games on there but after i tryed to put the nintendo 64 emulator on my psp no emulators work they take forever to load and when they do the seconds i hit anything on my psp teh screen goes blank for acouple of minutes and comesback on but i cannot run any games like that if anyone could help i wouild be thankfull

IMO Daedalus PSP R12 by StrmnNrmn is the best N64 for the PSP. A hand full for games run at decent speeds, some with a sound but its best to disable sound to increase the framerate.

If games are take too long to load it is probably because you have them zipped. Try loading them uncompressed.

yea thats the one im using but after i put it on my psp all my emulators would load but they would take around 5 minutes to load and if i hit any button after it had loaded the screen woudl go blank for another 5 minutes ive tryed formating my memeroy stick and redownloading teh emulators but it still dosnt work and i really wanted to be able to play super smash bros on my psp hell atm i would even like to be able to play my sonic games again

Have your tried putting them in different folders? Depend on your settings the emulators may only work if they are loaded from either PSP/GAME PSP/GAME150 or PSP/GAME310

i just tryed it then it gave me an error code for when it was in teh 310 folder and when i put it in the 150 folder it just did teh same blackscreen thing as it did befor

I cant understand why it doesnt run. The only other options i can think of is download the emulator again. If that doesnt work boot up into the recovery menu. Power down the psp completely then turn it on with the R button held down. Then go to Configuration and make sure the GAME folder is set to 1.5 kernel and NOT 3.40 kernel.

when i did that i got to the recovery screen but when i hit anybutton teh screen went black again so im starting to think theres something wrong with my firmware like ive got a virus on my psp or something like that so mabey i should up date it to a newer version of the custom firmware

Does it only go black when you try ti run homebrew? It might be that the backlight is dying. Try loading a UMD and see if it still goes black.

[gameO_Ofreak]

nope its not the backlight thats doing it i played burnout fine, im gonna play around with it some more tommow and see if i can fix it ill post again tommow if it worked or if it didnt

Are you using the correct version of the emulator, as in are you trying to load the 1.00 version (One folder) or the 1.50 version (Two folders, EXAMPLE an EXAMPLE&#37

Do you have any plugins enabled? Try disabling them. Also try other homebrew other than emulators to see if they work correctly.

Im convinced its just a setting thats has been incorrect set.

If all else fails you could always downgrade to 1.5 then reupgrade to 3.03OE again. But this maybe (But unlikely) risky. If your firmware is corrupt then the PSP could crash will updating to 1.5 resulting in a bricked PSP.
