I have an 8GB SanDisk Memory Stick Pro Duo.

The PSP reads it as 7762MB and it says it is MagicGate Supported. According to guides, this isn't fake.

But when I go into USB mode, my computer wants me to format it and says it is 3.58 GBs.

I googled the problem and I found that many other people have got this problem, but I haven't found the solution.

(One guy took one emory stick back to the retail store and exchanged it. They checked to see how much memory would show up and it came up to 7-something Gbs. But when he took it home and put it into his PC, it showed up as 3.58GB again).

I am running Windows XP.

Is there a solution to this?

Is my memory stick fake?

Or do I just need some drivers, since my Windows XP isn't regularly updated. (Its is Service Pack 2 and this is the first time my PC is trying to read a memory stick. The only drivers I have installed myself is only a graphics card driver and sound card driver.)

So, I just saw a SanDisk 8GB Memory Stick PRO Duo with MagicGate on eBay.

It was cheap, but when I looked on the description, it only described that it was a digital camera memory stick.

Yet, when I did some research, I gather that the PSP can use any type of Memory Stick, PRO, Duo, or PRO Duo with MagicGate on it.

So of I am not mistaken, I can use this type of Memory Stick on my PSP?
