IS THERE A WAY JUST TO DOWNLOAD TO 1.50????
OR IT JUST INSTALL 3.71 WITHOUT ANY OPTIONS

any reason why you want to install 1.50? This auto installs 3.71 M33.

no problem, as long as it says "Write MS BOOT CODE" after entering Y then it means it was successful.

Thanks for the guide. I was able to upgrade my crisis core psp to 3.71 m33-2. I just have a question with regards to playing psx games. Can this new firmware play psx iso's directly or do i still need to convert my psx cd's to eboots? Thanks again. (Sorry for the noob question)

no, read the first page of the guide.

This tutorial will guide you through the process of creating a "Pandora's Battery" and a "magic memory stick," which when used in conjunction can unbrick, restore, and downgrade any PSP firmware.

I used this guide today for two psps(one ceramic white and the other one piano black), Very well written and fool proof!

X3Sphere you pwn!

Hello I just tried this method on a fat PSP and everything went fine. The only problem was when I went to try and load one of my dumped games, it gave me a "game could not be started error". Any solutions? It doesn't do this with PSP Slim so I find it really strange.
