I just purchased a new PSP-3000 to use for emulation. It is version 6.60 out of the box. I installed Pro CFW C2 last night, as far as I know, with no hitches. However, I am having issues running PS1 Eboots.
I at first used PSX2PSP to convert some PS1 games to eboots (I did Alundra, Chrono Cross, Xenogears, and Final Fantasy VII). All of the games when I tried to run them off my PSP just went to a black screen, no PS1 logo or anything, and the system froze. I managed to get a Tobal 2 eboot to work perfectly when run off the CFW. I only played for about 5 minutes, one or two fights, but it seemed to work fine.
I was reading about some games needing Popsloader to run, so I installed Popsloader V3 for 6.60. I tried running FFVII again, held R before the game started, got the Popsloader screen to come up and tried different versions (3.50, 3.71, 3.72), but still I got a black screen.
I then tried using Popstation and Icetea to convert the files and got the same issue - just a black screen with system freeze.
All of the above games work on ePSXe and my PS1/PS2. Am I missing something? I haven't tried running anything else off the CFW, but like I said, Tobal 2 seems to work fine, so I don't think I'm having an issue with the CFW. Is something going awry in the conversion process? Is it possible that I have some bad copies of the games that causes them to not work on PSP (despite working on ePSXe/PS1/PS2)?
Any help would be appreciated.
