Welcome to the website I hope you like it. Well for the data are you sure is it for PSP if so... Format your memory card in system setup in your PSP settings... Make sure to back up your files in your memory card if you like them cause it will delete everything on your Memory card... After that look at the memory card in the computer, Look for the PSP folder inside it it will say "GAME" then put the game in the folder then your all done

hello and welcome to psphome
i had a similar issue recently, but my problem was with upgrading to the latest firmware, i tried just about everything to upgrade it but nothing worked, i was advised that there may be issues with the actual memorystick and to try another, which i did, and with success, reformatting the other memorystick made no difference in my situation, sometimes you get a duff memstick for some reason, return it to your supplier stating that its corrupt and they should swap it for you

What firmware is your psp?
What type of game are you trying to play, homebrew, an official demo or a downloaded full psp game?

If homebrew its generally an issue with you not having the right firmware or the downloaded game not being in the correct format.
If a downloaded demo then it may not be in a correctly named subfolder of <psp's drive letter>:\PSP\GAME\
If its a full psp game you have downloaded you'll need to get someone else to help you.
