Just drag it to the right file, it should have instructions, btw what firmware are you using?

Found a tutorial for downgrading firmware:

This is a quick guide for installing firmware 3.03OE from 1.50. There are newer versions but this is the most stable/best.

You must downgrade your firmware to 1.50 which will be covered in another tutorial.

Stage 1 - Getting the right programs
Download - Password = SikHeadTom

* 3.03 firmware here (http://rapidshare.com/files/24997553/3.03.rar),
* 1.50 firmware here (http://rapidshare.com/files/24997553/3.03.rar),
* 3.03 OE here (http://rapidshare.com/files/26361133/dax_3.03oe_waushare.com.rar).

and put them all in a nice folder on your desktop.

Stage 2 - Putting them on your PSP

* Open the last file you downloaded, the RAR file. Inside there is a folder called MS_ROOT - Open this, and copy and paste the PSP folder to the location on your memory stick where the PSP folder already is. If done correctly, a message will come up saying 'There is already a folder here called PSP' or something. Just click Yes To All - Nothing will be erased.
* Once that's done, goto the folder with all your downloaded files from this tut, and rename the EBOOT.PBP to 303.PBP, and extract the zip folder, and rename that extracted EBOOT.PBP to 150.PBP.
* Copy and paste 150.PBP and 303.PBP to PSP/GAME/oeupdmaker on your memory stick.


Stage 3 - Making the right files on your PSP

* This stage has only one step. Go back to your PSP, and start the homebrew called '3.03 OE Update maker'. Wait. If done correctly, a file called DATA.DXAR should be created. Cut and paste this file to PSP/GAME/303oeflasher on your Memory Stick.


Stage 4 - Installation

* This is the big one. Go to your PSP and start the homebrew '3.03 OE Firmware Install'. But just let me say this first: If you did all the stages correctly, this will work and get you to 3.03 OE. However, if this does not work for any reason, don't hold me responsible.
* Anyway, start it up if you agree to that, and press O to start the flashing. It is recommended to plug in your power cord, just to be safe, and you must have over 75&#37; battery life to start it at all.
* Once that is done, you'll be presented with the normal 'Flash1 is corrupt, press O to restore default settings' message, so do that. Wait until the PSP starts again. and set up your PSP like the day you bought it.
* Once you finish that, you will have 3.03 OE! Feel happy! But I'd just like to say this: Put all your KXPloited homebrew in PSP/GAME150 and un-KXPLOITED homebrew into PSP/GAME.







Hope that helped.

If you are on a custom firmware (OE) or 1.50 with DevHook or something move it to a folder called "ISO" on the root of your psp drive ;)

so it should be
"X:/ISO/your cso.cso"
