Simple question RE: clearing PSP memory

[johnhall]

I'm having trouble clearing files from my PSP memory stick duo. Originally I went through USB mode on my computer and moved all undesired files to the trash. Well that didn't seem to clear any memory on my memory stick. The files were removed from the memory stick but no space was cleared whatsoever. I have a 256MB stick and it says 93MB available. The only things showing on my memory stick through USB mode is MEMSTICK.IND, MSTK_PRO.IND, and the PSP folder containing a savedata folder with my game saves, an Image folder with 1 image, and an empty system folder. The first two files say they are taking up Zero KB, the PSP folder in total says its taking up 2.2 MB. So were is the extra 150 MB or so, and how to I clear it up so I can reuse it? Thanks for any response in advance.

Placing files in the Trash (on removable discs/drives (USB Mode makes the PSP+Memory Stick appear to be a removable drive)) does NOT delete them, but stores them in the Trash for later deletion (or restoration, in case you change your mind). To delete them, you also have to empty the Trash for that drive (the PSP ).

thank you for your speedy response, but im not sure I understand. Where are the files moved to once I place them in the trash? You say I have to empty the trash for the removable drive, but how do I access this?

EDIT: got it, duh, enter usb mode before clearing trash. I didn't think using a removable device would actually place stuff in my trash can that wasn't previously there. Guess I was wrong. thanks again.
