My PS2 memory card is acting funny..What to do?

Question

It is the Max Memory 64MB memory card. On one game I've had a game file for a while, and it works fine. But when I tried to make a new game, it would say SAVE FAILED every time. All the while still allowing me to save the original game file. Now I'm trying to make a new file on a new game, and it says SAVE FAILED.

What is wrong with it?

I've tried taking it out and putting it back in, pushing it as far as it can go, and even blowing on it. Nothing is working.

-It is definately NOT full, theres only like 1mb max on it.

-It lets me save current games, but not create new ones.

Answer 1

Those "mega" cards do this all the time. More than likely your saves are lost. If you do get it to work again by some miracle you should copy as much as you can to a normal memory card, or at least the saves that are most important to you.

I had a 15 page (like having 15 cards in one) playstation1 card way back when and it cost me every single save I had. I had saves for something like 30 games on it

Answer 2

Either no more room on the card or the file is corupt, also the card could be bad not alowing anything to get saved the cheaper cards do tend to mess up like that. May want to check the connection it may have dirt on the connectors or scratched sumhow I would definitly stick with the PS2 brand cards they are more reliable plus the aftermaket ones if they mess up yer system then its gone and Sony will not try to help because of the aftermarket item use on the system. I have alos had troubles with saves all because of a aftermarket controller for sum reason I dont know but that does have effects. Stick with the Official PS2 brands they aint that expensive anymore.

Answer 3

Your memory card is full you have to turn your PS2 with no game on it and delete some files that you are done using
