Ok i just got my psp yesterday, and it works pretty good might i say. i got it used, but the only problem i seem to be having with it is the volume. now it lets me turn the volume up...u know how if u hold down the volume + or - button long enough, the volume comes up...well it lets me turn up the volume, but when i try to turn it down...it doesnt even do anything. even when i hold down the - button, nothing comes up. is there a fix for this problem? or is my volume just screwed?

It might be an easy fix if you open the unit, but since you just got it yesterday, you might as well exchange it.

Button probably broken, if you got it for free. Should be content having it, even with broken button. o_O;

dude i had kind of the same problem, some water got into my psp and both of my volume buttons werent working but with time the button that turns the volume up started to work properly but the other volume button wasnt working properly it was doing two functions as if you press home and down volume button together. When i was watching a video if i turned the volume down it would take me back as when u press home and would also turn the volume down. The home button was doing the same thing. So the best thing to do is wait a couple of days maybe it'll start working again or do like i did and exchange it since u just bought it.

Exchange it. The button is probably broken. It is nice to turn the volume down sometimes so it would be handy to have the button. If the button worked, you could also think, "I have a fully functional PSP!"

Hmm the same thing happens on one of my cellphones, I think it's probably broken or faulty
