PSP Home Button Problems

[dmc1974]

I was wondering if anybody was having the same problems with their PSP as me.  Alot of times while I'm in the middle of a game it asks me if I want to quit the game like I pressed the home button, but I was no where near it.  Its so irritating.  I dont think it's the game.  It has happened with a few different ones like Castlevania Dracula X, 007, and EA Replay.  And it doesn't seem like the buttons stuck because it doesn't happen all the time.  Any thoughts??

It's your hardware. Most likely there is a build up of dirt and cystalized sweat. If you open your psp, clean the top faceplate. Especially clean around the bottom row of buttons (they are all connected together in a strand). Do not clean anywhere around the screen, smudges are very hard to get off.

Best of luck

Cool, thanks.  I'll see what I can do.
