In order to determine the firmware of the PSP game console and its availability, you need to know the motherboard number. This information is most often hidden from consumers. In this way, the manufacturer protects their product from various hacks. You can use one of many methods to determine the board version.
Instructions
Step 1
Download PSPident v0.4 software. Make sure you are using a trusted source when downloading. Check the downloaded file for viruses and checksum. Set your PSP game console to HEN mode. Unpack the downloaded archive, then copy the entire PSPident folder to the portable device folder: / PSP / GAME /.
Step 2
Go to the "Game" menu and select "Memory Stick ™", where run the downloaded application. The program will automatically check the device and give you the version of the motherboard. Do not use this utility on the PSP3000 console model, as all the boards of this device are not flashed and the program will not be able to display the necessary information.
Step 3
Use the identification of the motherboard number without using special programs. Turn off the PSP console and remove the battery. Below it will be information about the device. Find the Data Code inscription, next to which a number and a letter will be indicated. Rewrite them separately. Open a special comparison table for PSP motherboards and determine your number from it
Step 4
Contact technical support for PSP users. Ask your manager for information about your device's motherboard or how to identify it. Perhaps experts will help you determine this number without the need to reflash or open the device.
