So I bought a 4.0gb stick off of eBay (Sony), and synched it up. I was planning on using it to store more CSOs than my 2gb, which I was going to use for backup. I backed up the 2gb stick, and clicked to drag it over to the 4gb. After it said all the files where on there, I checked it using PSP Content Manager, and it said "Invalid ISO" instead of showing me the .png for the CSO. I figured, eh, the program's fault, so I tried wiping it clean and starting over. Now half of the CSOs work, half don't. And now my EBoots in the 1.5 folder are all corrupt, when I know they work fine (same with the CSOs). So I've troubleshooted like fifteen different ways, and I was going to see if anyone can help me. I figure maybe it's:
1)The card's problem. It's cheap, and off of eBay, maybe its some faulty memory- the trick is, it stores 4gb and it works occasionally, so I know it has the capacity, or at least the capacity to work.
2) Some problem between my External where the CSOs are and the PSP holding the card. Maybe the data is getting scrambled somewhere or something
3) This is the least plausible, but my friend thought he read something on Rapidshare or Megaupload or one of those sites about self terminating files. I've never heard of this, and these files work occasionally and on other PSPs, so I really really doubt this one.
I was running 3.10 Oea', but I upgraded to 3.40 Oea hoping to fix the problem. CSOs seem to work if I format the memory card, synch it up and then click drag one or two over really fast. Example- I can fit like 5 small CSOs (Bomberman, Puzzlequest,etc.) or like two bigger ones (Valkyrie Profile, GTAVCS), but then everything quits working after I drag that over. Same goes for the 1.5 eBoots. They'll work at first, but then I can't drag any more over because the card labels everything invalid. This is driving me insane, because its so inconsistent. My backup plan to just run a DebHook seemed to work for a sec, but that just seems to troublesome sometimes. Any and all help will be appreciated!
I've tried moving CSOs back and forth between my 2gb, and last time I tried it worked, but I'm worried that the problem may spread, so I want to leave what works on my 2gb as untouched as possible.
Thanks again!
