Hi Lofatman,

 

If this problem happens with the memory card when its in either slot 1 or slot 2

I suggest you clean the contacts of the memory card. 

 

If it just happens when you have in Slot 1 or Slot 2 only,

 Go to Radio Shack and get a Can of contact cleaner that has a Brush built into the Spray nozzle. 

  1. Turn off the PS2 and disconnect the power cord.
  2. Use a small screwdriver to press open the memory card slot. Do not use too much force, its delicate.
  3. Push the Brush sprayer up into the memorycard slot and spray a little and brush away at the memory slot contacts.

if you do not have success with that, you must open the PS2 case, and Remove the Controler ports and clean up the whole controller port assembly.

 

If that doesn't work, and your frustrated and not Electronically skilled enough to do this.  I can get the PS2 in tip top shape, for $32 and that includes return shipping.  I run the website www.playstationclinic.com

 

This should put you in business.

the fact is your memory card is corrupted, same thing happens in flash disc which reads about a half full of MB but literally it has no data inside.

Inside the memory slot of the ps2 you will see a series of gold metal bands. They each should be slightly bowed above the plastic to contact the memory card. Often one or two are flat and miss contact. Take off cover and gently using a needle lift up these bands slightly. This should fix problem.

For guitar hero II, it will say, error loading, corrupted file.
How do I fix this.

Also, on my memory card, it says guitar hero III save which is right except on the program (guitar hero III) it doesn't detect this.

Comment by Guest, posted on Dec 29, 2007

I was playing Madden 08 and it says memory card has been removed or replaced so i pulled it out and blew into it and reinserted it but it said it again

so turned off the system and went into the browser it showed the memory card in the slot but when i went into it it said no data and that i had only 162 kb of memory left. I cleaned the memory card with a Q tip but with no cleaner and it still didn't work

it does this in both slots what should i do?
