My PSP turns off by itself.

Hello.
I have a "little" problem with my PSP, so here it is, when I play on the PSP, it turns off by itself.
I found a small solution which is to plug the battery into the PSP while I play. But this still causes me issues because there aren't always outlets nearby, and within my reach.
So, I hope you can help me.

Manu.
Configuration: Windows Vista Internet Explorer 7.0

    If it works on mains power, it's your battery that's dead. :)

    What is the firmware of your PSP? After how long does the PSP turn off?

    Un firmware is a type of software that provides low-level control for a device's hardware.
    The PSP never turns off after a certain time; it often shuts down as soon as I turn it on...

    The firmware is the system software that is installed on the PSP. The latest from Sony is 5.51

    Change the battery. I was going to say something else, but a dead battery is a more... reasonable cause.

    Um... Well, when I plug in the charger without the battery, it also shuts down, and I took the battery from one of my friends and it still turns off after a few minutes.

      Have you tried resetting the settings to default and/or updating it because it looks like a Flash issue, either 1 or 0.

    I tried the default settings but it doesn't change anything =/ it bugs during the game and then it shuts down.

    I had the same thing happen to me, I was playing Vice City Stories and it just turned off by itself. I was freaked out but I left it alone for about 5 minutes and it turned back on.
