I know I'll probably sound like an idiot, and get 5 messages flaming me to use google before I get a proper response, but I'm patient enough to wade through that to get an answer...

I recently upgraded Popsloader to its latest version from a far earlier one(3.72 was the newest pops it could use). I had no problems with this earlier version, but I recently attempted running a game that refused to run correctly(Dragon Warrior VII), and I searched, and it turns out the POPS that works the best is 4.01, which of course meant I needed to upgrade Popsloader. I did that. It did not work. I held the R button, and it went straight to the game(or, in the case of DW7, a black screen).

Thinking I might have forgotten to turn it on again, or it might have been disabled, I turned off my PSP, held the R button down, turned it on again, went to the recovery mode, checked the plugins, and lo, and behold, it was (Enabled). Even had that little "1" next to it that was necessary to activate it(tried removing it and it just plain crashed). Further searches yielded little more information.

<EDIT>
And after a long and mostly useless narrative, I realized what the issue is, but it wasn't an issue with the previous versions I had used; Is there any way to use the lastest version of Popsloader on a LEXAR memory stick? Or am I SOL and going to have to find a Sony one?

Funny thing is this is the first time I've ever had a problem with it.

I've replaced my memory card with a Sony Memory Stick PRO Duo Mark2 Magic Gate and I'm still getting crashes whenever I run the popsloader plugin, so unless the Sony MS is incompatible with Popsloader, I don't know what the problem is.

PS- Sorry to bump the topic, but I read the rules and thought it would be more appropriate than starting a new topic.

<EDIT>
OK Got POPSloader working again.. Turns out the version I had was incompatible with my Firmware. I'm still having issues getting Dragon Warrior VII to work. I wonder if it's an issue with my converter. I tried PSX2PSP, but the file seems to small, being smaller than both the disks put together, and ImpalerPSX, which seems to work but I'm not entirely sure.
