Dave, my little cousin got a new PSP and i was trying to help him download pictures from a computer to his unit. I read your help on how to download from a Mac to the PSP, but it didn’t seem to be the same. Is there any other information for how to download from a Dell to the PSP?

Hi Dave, I hooked my PSP up to my PC (Windows), and I went to the USB mode on the PSP, heard the connection noise, went to My Computer, and saw the Removable Disk file. But when I click it to open it, it says please insert a disk into Drive E:…How do I do it??
