Answer 1

this is a little thing us techies like to call bricked, your psp cant be fixed unless you buy a new motherboard with it, but if its still under warranty send it back to sony and get them to replace the mobo, mabey you will get lucky and it will have a version of firmware that is really low so you can start uploading hacks to it and make it really awesome, but anyway yeah its bricked

Answer 2
