A ta-082 is the type of hardware in certain psp,s that doesent support frimwares below 2.5, if a ta-082 psp is downgraded below 2.5 it will brick up, and becomne a paperwaight. The other psp's that are non-ta-082 can support any firmware. 1.5 is the golden firmware, it can support almost any homebrew. These undesigned code can be anything from running windows 95, to games. A game programmer under the alies of 0okm, designed a "softdown" program that would make the ta-82's run 1.5, but sadly some assholes hacked his account and now he stoped helping people. This brought sadness to the hearts of many.
