Prob. with my psp?

Question

when i try to charge my psp with my charger i got at an EB games store. For some reason it only charges when put it at certain postion Ex.: wire under psp. why can't i charge it normally anymore? note: the charger i use comes with a charger for three other handhelds.

Answer 1

I have that problem with an aftermarket usb cable, but it charges fine with the Sony charger. I guess that PSPs just don't really like non-Sony chargers.

Answer 2

most likely the charger is either slightly damaged from the inside, used to happen with my xbox controller. I would go back to EB games and ask y its doing tht.
