A few questions about upgrading CFW

[xcessive]

I am currently running CFW 3.71 and I would like to upgrade to the latest CFW. The only thing I'm concerned is could I get snes9x emulator to work on the latest CFW? Is it worth upgrading?

the answer to both of your questions is yes. i have snes9x on my cfw (5.00 m33-6) and it works great. there are also many reason to upgrade, including bug fixes, and the ability to use the latest plugins.

updating is quite easy.

1. download the 5.00 m33-6 update from here:
   Custom Firmware 5.00 M33-6 Released, PSP Hacks - PSP Slim Hacks
2. also included in that link is download for official firmware 5.00. you will need to download that as well.
3. after both are downloaded and unpacked, rename the ofw 5.00 update 500.PBP, and then place it in the UPDATE folder found in the 5,00 m33-6 installed.
4. next, copy the UPDATE folder to your psp, and place it in ms0:\PSP\GAME\UPDATE.
5. now all you have to do is run the update, and then your cfw will be updated to 5.00 m33-6!

im not sure if the emulators you have now will still work, but you can download them again from the main site and i am sure they will work. if you download the new versions, just copy your roms from one version to the other, then replace the old with the new. it should be a simple process.

i hope this answers your questions.

Thank you for your reply.
I am updating at this moment. I was wondering, could you play the latest PSP games on CFW 5.00? Thanks for your time.

not the latest of the latest, but if you really wanted to play those games, you could install 5.50 gen-a/b/b2.

Okay, thanks.
