@HH

Thanks for the offer my friend, I'm not going to separate the A600 from the Ram Expansion & in truth I'm not looking to sell the A600 at all, It's just the modded psp sounds tempting from a homebrew point of view & I'm happy to offer the package to webhead If Zetro is unable to help, just giving the guy a Possible Plan B

hi many thank im interested init ,but i got to see if zetro can bang me out sumit first,
i like 600 but they are a bit limited on memory expansion which is a shame i wish somebody whould make a decent memory upgrade for it.

A600 is not limited anymore. There is an ultimate RAM expansion for A600 available.

well as for the 333mhz i had to set mine to it as it was running on 233 ,you can check by switching the psp on whilst holding triggers down go to config and see cpu speed mine was set low for some reason.but now its right it does play good i even had workbench 1.3 running lol

now thats a psp.

Horace is correct. PSPUAE, sets the clock to 333mhz, when its executed. You must have had an old recovery config file. Cause the default actually says "default" not "233".

Cos then it would have been $250 and non profitable.

[webhead]

i c well it defo plays better than it did i added fast mem aswell and that speeded it up alot, also WB3.1 works ace with a load of mem in config try it.

also WB1.3 works great and i even used the speech tool and it works just like it should lol.

pretty good shame we can make some addons through the usb it could be a real amiga.

you could put a usb floppy on and use adf blitzer to turn them back into disks using the psp now that would be cool.

As I said someone must have messed with your recovery menu, I have never altered CPU speed in recovery. Its on Default all the time, I tried yesterday to set it to 333MHz just to check what you said.

There was no speed difference. Your "233" setting in recovery was overriding the PSP's CPU speed and forcing it to "233".

Yes, we all imagine great things for PSPUAE, but unless coders help, it will continue improving slowly. I can only do so much on my own.

If it was the case that your recovery had CPU set to "233", then it would have also effected your proper PSP UMD games to. As in, if a game needed 333 to run smooth, your PSP would have been forcing it to 233.

zetro still interested or not?

quite astounding. hating Sony, but buying multiple PSPs. Sounds like you have more money than sense or judgement to me.

Hey, you been drinking Troll Light?

It's perfectly possible to like a product from a global corporation otherwise regarded as crappy, or evil, or making tons of other crap products, or treating their staff like crap, or using child labor. Take your pick, this is not directed at any special megaglobaniac multicorporation.

He could also think the PSP is a pretty darn good platform with many games that he likes, but still dislike Sony because... see above. Because they wouldn't repair his beloved record player from 1987, the expensive headphones had one earpiece fall off after two weeks, they spend more on advertising than on r&d'ing good products, I could go on...

Why not ask him, and why he has two? Lots of possibilities here, too - he had one but got one in a trade or very cheap. Also, it would explain why he only wants to trade one and not both.

I'll butt out now since I'm not interested in the trade, just was entertained since you seemed to fire on all cylinders...

but such an opinion would be blissfully and naively inaccurate.

is it really that odd that such comments as

i hate sony ...i buy a psp play on it get bored senseless then sell it

really do baffle me? I think not myself, since such activities arent cheap and seem somewhat contradictory.

I happen to hate ASDA, so i dont shop there. I hate SKY TV, so i dont subscribe. I hate The Sun 'newspaper', so i dont buy it. The difference is I dont go on about it.


Trust me... that's far from me 'firing on all cylinders'... i was merely stating what i thought it sounded like his comments implied. It is of course possible i inferred something completely unintended.


edit: apologies to webhead for going off-topic.

No idea. I got mine, but I did sign up at the very start.

However I left it at least 3-4 months from receiving my "Your order is ready Please send us the money" before actually getting round to send it.

LordV (designer) and AcidRain (shop owner) are on ICQ all the time. You can msg them they are very nice people.

I don't usually care who makes a console or computer, if i like it i get it

As for my psp its probably the least played system i have! its packed away in its box still practically brand new!
But since my psp is the limited final fantasy edition i will keep it a little longer as ive seen them going on ebay anywhere between £200 and £300 (used)!! I paid £140 new from game .... it could get higher in value as not many of the ff7 ones were made
