Step 1:

Heres whats called the XMB, aka the Psp's operating system. its like Windows for a computer. it lets u launch applications, tweak the system settings, and much more. You can access the XMB by turning the psp on without a umd in the drive.

Step 2:

In order to check what "Firmware" you're running, youll need to scroll all the way to the left in the XMB. this is where you should be at this point

Step 4:

Scroll down again till you see System Information and click it with the X button. now youll be able to see the basic info about your psp, mac address, the software version and the psp's name.


And there you have it. you've successfully check your firmware version. now you can continue to read threads in the forum to determine what you can do with the version you have. good luck!
