1. How do I change the background color on my PSP?

You can't, it changes with the different months of the year.
2. How do I put a screen protector on?

Peel off the film ever so slightly, then lay it on top of the screen. Take a credit card or hard piece of plastic and gently rake it across as you peel the remaining film off of the protector. If you have a few air bubbles, don't worry. They usually go away in 24 hours... if you have a lot, re-do it.
3. I keep getting "WLAN switch is turned off" whenever I'm trying to setup my internet connection.. what am I doing wrong?

You need to turn on the wireless function of your PSP. The switch is on the left, bottom side of your PSP. When correctly switched on, the green LED will light up when you get a signal (ie a connection). It will not stay green from the minute you turn it on... only when a signal is sent and recieved.
4. I have some white spots on my PSP and they won't go away!

These are stuck pixels and they might eventually take care of themselves
5. I'm listening to music, but I keep hitting other buttons.. how do I stop this?

Put your PSP on "hold." It's the same button as the power button (right, bottom side). Just slide it down.
6. How do I put pictures on my PSP?

Two ways: Format your Memory stick Duo and the PSP will automatically create the folders for you. Then plug your PSP into a PC using a USB cable. Make sure you put the PSP in "USB mode." USB mode is in the main menu. Then drag and drop the photos from your PC to your PSP's "photo" folder.
Connect your PSP to a PC via a USB cable. Go to My Computer > F Drive (could be named a different letter) > Create a folder called "Photo"
7. How do I get rid of scratches on my PSP?

8. How do I put videos on my PSP?

9. Any info on the PSP?

http://hardware.gamespot.com/Story-ST-11721-1480-x-x-x
10. Ok my PSP has dead pixels, what next?

Relax. Breathe. A lot of PSP's will have 1-2 dead pixels... they're hardly noticable. If you have 4 ore more, then it's time to return it.
If you bought it from Wal-mart, Best Buy or any other major retailer, chances are they will let you return it for another one. It doesn't hurt to try.
If you bought it from EBgames and Gamestop, good luck.
*Update* Sony does cover them now, so call (1-800-345-7669) http://www.gamespot.com/news/2005/03...s_6121092.html
Buy the Best Buy PRP if you haven't bought one yet, it's $39.99 and it covers dead pixels and other malfunctions for 2 years
11. Why should I get a PSP? Convince me!

Make up your own mind and research the product before you plop down $250
12. How do I prevent finger prints on my PSP?

Don't touch it
Wipe it with the provided cloth
Buy a screen protector that covers the whole PSP
13. Does anyone else notice ghosting?

Yes. These LCDs are very nice, but they do appear to have ghosting, or "trailing." It's when the colors tend to bleed and you can see trails of say a race car's tail lights as it moves in and out of lanes.
14. My brother says the PSP isn't out, is he lying?

Yes
15. How do I setup my internet connection?

Go to network settings and create new. SSID is the name of your network... you can either type it in or just hit "scan"
Make sure your WLAN switch is on
"Scanning" will bring up all the wireless connections available to you, pick your network.
WEP is a security feature on wireless networks and it will require you to have your WEP key ready if your network is secured.
Test connection after your done and you should be all set
16. There is dust under my screen!

Either take it apart and clean it, or return it if it bothers you that much. Good luck.
17. When charging my PSP, the orange light turned off... what does that mean?

It's done charging
18. How long does it take to charge my PSP?

2 hours
19. Does the sampler disc contain free music?

Yes/No. There are some music videos
20. Does Ridge Racer play online (as in with people across the world?)

Nope, only PSP to PSP. Both PSP's will need a copy of the game.
21. Is Twisted Metal: Head On, online (as in I can play with anyone across the world)?

Yep!
22. What type of memory stick should I buy?

Sony or Sandisk "Memory Stick Duo or Pro Duo"
23. Any stores not selling "Bundles" ?

If you mean the value packs, no. If you mean bundles like "PSP + 2 games that you have no choice over" yes.
Best Buy, Circuit City, Ebgames (actual stores, not online) and gamestop sell just the value packs.
24. What USB cable can I use?

USB mini B, 5 pin
I was able to use my digital camera's USB cable, so try that if you have one
Datel and other 3rd party companies are going to release PSP specific cables very soon, if not already.
25. If I already have a USB card reader, do I need a USB cable for the PSP?

As long as it reads memory stick pro duo's, I don't see why you would.
26. Does the Value Pack include the USB cable?

Nope
27. What are some cheap places to get memory sticks?

Google
Froogle
Amazon.com
zipzoomfly.com
newegg.com
mysimon.com
pricewatch.com
28. USB 1.1 or 2.0?

2.0, it's backwards compatible with 1.1 devices
29. How do I add music to my PSP?

Two ways: Format your Memory stick Duo and the PSP will automatically create the folders for you. Then plug your PSP into a PC using a USB cable. Make sure you put the PSP in "USB mode." USB mode is in the main menu. Then drag and drop the songs from your PC to your PSP's "Music" folder.
Connect your PSP to a PC via a USB cable. Go to My Computer > F Drive (could be named a different letter) > Create a folder called "Music"
If you need to convert your songs to MP3, google "MP3 converter"
30. What comes in the Value Pack?

PSP system
32mb memory stick Pro Duo
Spiderman 2 UMD (First 1 million units)
Strap
Headphones w/ remote
Demo UMD
Soft Case
Battery and AC adapter
31. How much does it cost?

$249.99 for the value pack
Tax depends on your area, so don't ask...it's probably like $20 on top of that
