PSP Mod Chip Up and Running

Are you one of those gamers that used to mod your game systems? Now you can do the same to the PSP.

The folks over at Undiluted Platinum have come out with what's touted as the first mod chip for the PSP. The announcement about the chip came out along with diagrams to show the installation process of the chips. Each motherboard model has it's own set of installation process.

As of now, the mod is only available on PSPs containing motherboards with model numbers TA-079, TA-080 and TA-081. The mod will not work on the new motherboard model TA-082. However, they are in the process of working on that as we speak.

And since the installation of something like this isn't an easy process, you might want to get some help. If you've got no experience modding, then I recommend you spend the cash to get someone else to do it. It is better than having to buy a new PSP when you ruin it.

    Is there an ETA on the Mod chip for the TA-082?
    seems that is the MB that is floating around in current PSPs. I got one from Walmart and EB games both have the TA-082 MB. 12-13-06

    This chip adds another flash memory to it so instead of having to have firmware version 1.5, so you can run homebrew, or 3.03, so you can run the latest games, you can have 3.03 on one and 1.5 on the other. :) hope that helped

    Is there a E.T.A. for this new chip supporting the TA-082 motherboard? And is there an official site for the Undilute Platinum?
