What do you mean by slow? Have you checked to make sure the CPU speed is set at Default?
when moving around the menu
the game preview, picture move slow
when strat the game , takes long time to read
how to check the CPU speed??
Press select in the XMB. It should be set at Default.

On a brand new psp, Yes. Pandora & DC7 required.
If you mean CFW GEN then, no. Need to go back to 3.90M33>4.01M33.
You need to get a pandora battery and make a magic memory stick, start here http://forums.exophase.com/showthread.php?t=6832
Thanks Jake. I did that already. My friend has a Pandora battery & Magic Stick. He can downgrade PSP with 3.95 OFW and below but not mine that has 4.01 OFW. I checked with Dark Alex website, is it something to do with TA-088v3 mobo? I dunno if my PSP is TA-088v3, I assume it has because it's already 4.01 OFW (Am I right?). Dark Alex released new dumper for 5.00 OFW. Is this the solution to my problem? Do I need to upgrade from 4.01 to 5.00 and apply the dumper? or I still need the Pandora battery and magic mem stick to do it? Your help is much appreciated.
If it came with 4.01 on it then it is most likely a TA-088v3 which, as I understand, can not currently be hacked to run cfw. So unfortunatly you will have to wait until someone figures out how to hack the 88v3.
As for the 5.00 dumper, all it does is dumps the files for 5.00 from a 5.00 update eboot(when run from a cfw psp) so it cant help you either.

Thanks for quick reply. So I have to wait
I believe that there's a file to download to be able to know what motherboard of PSP I am using. Is it still possible that they shipped a 4.01 OFW with v2 mobo? Are all firmwares are compatible to all PSP regardless of version of their motheboard? What if I found out that its only an updated OFW loaded on my PSP but old version of motherboard (v2), Do I still have luck to downgrade it? Or maybe its already a v3 because Pandora wont work on mine? Because I read from other forum that others accidentally upgrade their custom firmware to 4.01 OFW, does this mean that they're doomed also and got stucked on 4.01 OFW or they will still able to recover and put it back to old version?
To be absolutely sure you can follow the instructions in this post http://forums.exophase.com/showthread.php?t=8848 you will need your friends cfw psp.
If it isnt a v3 you should be able to downgrade it with pandora. I recomend this guide http://forums.exophase.com/showthread.php?t=3780 you only need to do the magic memory stick part since you can get a pandora battery.

Hi Jake, I really appreciate your help. I'll get back to you as soon I tried this procedure. I'll let you know of any result. Now, I'll ask my friend to borrow his cfw psp. Thanks again. cheers!

now I have a problem: I originally started out at the official firmware, version 3.95. then, I screwed up the upgrade process, but managed to get it to 1.5. then I upgraded it to 3.52 m33, 3.52 m33-4, 4.01m33, and finally 4.01 m33-2 (the last two using your guide. thanks, btw 
). anyway, I'm having problems now. my battery, which I made into a pandora battery when trying to upgrade from 3.95 to 4.01 m33-2, won't let a system boot properly. my friends battery works fine, but mine just turns on the light but keeps the screen black when plugged in. I'm guessing I made a mistake somewhere, and since fat psp batteries are hard to come by around here, not sure how I'd replace it. some help would be greatly appreciated...

Problems...
I Have a PSP Fat with 3.90 M33-3 on it, and it won't upgrade to 4.01.
It runs the update program, then when verifying 401.pbp it shows "Incorrect file"
What have i done wrong? :confused1:
