PSP shell that emulates Windows Vista. It has a file browser, an MP3 player, a control panel, as well as some homebrew apps and games.

Installation

Copy the VISTA folder to /PSP/GAME/.

To change the mouse speed, open the souris.txt file and write a number in it; this number will be the mouse speed in pixels (e.g., 3 means the mouse will move 3 pixels at a time).

To change the background, replace the fond.png file.

To modify the username, open the name.txt file. Simply write your name or nickname in it.
