UMD Drive Bug Fixed by New PSP Firmware
By Chris on Friday, November 30th, 2007 at 5:47 PM PST In Game Companies, Game Platforms, Portable, Sony, Sony
A new PSP firmware update is now available via the Network Update option on your PSP. Version 3.73 doesn’t actually list any of the changes it makes before you install it, but PSP Fanboy got word from SCEA about what it does.
“With this update, operation of the UMD™ (Universal Media Disc) drive has been improved to address cases in which the UMD drive occasionally suspends and fails to reload data. Updating the system software to version 3.73 will resolve this issue,” said SCEA’s Al De Leon.
It’s a minor update, so you shouldn’t have really been expecting much. At least anyone who has suffered from this problem can avoid having it happen again, and for those of us who are lucky enough to have avoided it thus far, we can keep it that way.

piss off
There is no febuary 31st you dumbshit stop speading crap goddamn
so when dumb shits 2morow is the 29th aka the end of feb so will it be out by then
I wouldn`t be so sure, you see the internet is filled to the brim with liars who, in between their gay porno sessions, go and comment with made up lies to make their nerdy coolness go up.
A prime example of this would be Mr. Real Sony Inc. here who, with the microscopic smallness of his brain, (I`m sure it`s only rivaled by the size of his penis) made up a date that dosen`t even exist and then ran off to get horny to himself. Everyone KNOWS they`re lying, but they go with it anyway because they need hope.
i agree thats so true he mostprobley lives with hes mom and works at burger king so sad
its the end of feb and no update witch mean sony inc is a bullshiter
This reminds me of this forum I read about Grand Theft Auto San Andreas in which these mindless assholes talked about seeing bigfoot and Nessie (they even went as far as to say Chewbacca gives you a lightsaber halfway through the game)
Once the pics they posted were proven fake, one asshole said “oh, I was just testing out my new photoshop download, you were stupid to believe me!”
So I now ask you Sony Inc. (Real or Unreal, they`re both assholes) You`ve been proven wrong, were waiting for a crappy excuse
wtf whats with the bullshit lies. its a psp update. calm down

Now wait a minuete….
Your telling me that because I have a fat ass PSP I cant surf the web and listen to music at the same time? Why the hell not?
the music thing is kinda cool but what they really need is a calander or other games like mine sweeper
Really you can it just depends on the size of you Memorystick’TM
the bigger size of memory the more extra RAM for the psp then you can listen to your own custom songs.
Plus it helps with the new 16GB memorystick’TM we have made
Twice the size of Ram maybe able you to watch FLVs like PS3 dose.
To find out more about the 16GB memorystick’TM
go to the official PSP website
http://www.yourpsp.com
Music while surfing the web browser
Tell me more

ok i have done something about Realplayer on psp and will be after Firmware 4.00
we will put it in v4.03
I’m the biggest Homo on the internet.
you got that Right
cock sucker :Od====8
So what do you all think
is good enough to be updated?
URGHHH Damn Timmies
you were beliveable for a little while there but once you said that RealPlayer will be on update 4.3 I can tell you`re just talkin shit.
no no Realplayer now cant be possible on psp as we just tested it today
sorry if you hopes where high
v4.3 could be a just a bug update so any bugs it fixes them
http://www.yourpsp.com
well i beleive Him
it looks like He’s telling the truth. i meam look he said that theres gonna be a 16gb memstick
who makes that up
plus its also on the psp website and that portable copy thing so he probaly is a employe from sony/playstation department
He`s just a random nerd who studies all the upcoming Sony products and then posts it here to act like he’s an employee. Notice as soon as I said RealPlayer on PSP is BS he changes his mind and says it ain`t possible. Whatever.
