Transfering Saves on Psp

mcgrailg

Hi All, I have recently bought a 4gb card for my psp and what im wondering is how do i transfer my game saves over from my old card ? Also i have put the new card into the psp and formatted it, do i need to do anything else to use it or do i need an adapter ??

Hook it up to your PC with a usb cable!!
It will open up as a new drive, in the root you will see a folder called PSP, open that up and then you will see a folder called Gamesaves. Copy it to your desktop.
Take out the old card and put in the new one and copy the folder from your desktop into the PSP folder!!

cheers jonny, i have tried doing that but when i try to load a game it just hangs

Kimbot

Is the 4gb card a genuine card or an ebay knock off??
I have 3 cards that I do this to and never have any troubles with them!!
Do you have Custom Firmware of anything like that??

mcgrailg

ebay but its looks genuine enough, what do you mean a custom firmware, thanks for all your help

Kimbot

Whats the firmware version??
Goto your menu then into settings and it will give you revision number etc!!

its 2.7. the folders are set differently on both cards could this have something to do with it ?

Kimbot

Yes it may have something to do with it alright!!

Why don't you make a new folder on your PC and from your First card drag everything into it!! Then in the new card delete everything including the folders and drag everything back into it so you have an exact replica of your first card!!

mcgrailg

yeah i was thinking of doing that but i didn't want to screw up the new card but sounds like i have nothing to lose

Kimbot

No you will have a backup of everything on your PC so its all good!!

mcgrailg

thanks for all your help

Kimbot

No problem, I take it that it worked and all for you??

mcgrailg

tried it last night Jonny and it worked like a charm, do you know a good movie transfer software ?
