My mem stick is a 32 meg never saw the point in getting bigger. Any who I went to go update and it says I have 16 megs free when I have only like 6 game saves on it and nothing else. I looked through all the files when it was hooked up to my PSP and nothing is in any folder. How could I fix this?
Well, yea... I'm pretty sure they store system data on there.
Honestly, I would recommend getting a bigger card. You can get a gig for 15, 20 bucks and 2 for 25, 30.
When you have the room, you find uses for it. I have a bunch of wallpaper on mine... along with Wild Arms I got from the PSN.. and occasionally I'll download a demo to try.
I might get a bigger one when I get a PS3. But it's really weird I had 30 megs out of the 32 megs. I turned it on one day and it said 16 all of a sudden....
Due to how mem sticks are formatted (spacewise) you never actually get the memory indicated on the mem stick. It's always a trifle bit less, and that escalates by proportion. Also, your game saves may say 500kb but that does not include the space that the icon image takes up for that game save. But like it was stated on a previous post, even though you may not need the room, it's a good bet to invest in a bigger card. 1gig runs about $20 now (or less on some forums). It's always good to have the room and not need it than to not have it and need it.
But it just changed all of a sudden thats whats got me. I turned my PSP on it was 26 megs. Then I turned it off went to sleep and turned it on the next day and it said 16 megs. Should I try formatting it?
You can reformat it, but just make sure that you back up all the info on it on your computer. Make a folder (name it psp) on your computer, copy all the info from your mem card into this filder. Then reformat it via the psp.
