Problem saving PSone games on PS3

My friend is playing Xenogears on the PS3, but it keeps telling him there is no memory card detected when he tries to save it. We were under the impression it had the utilities to save PSone games built-in internally. We even went so far as to connect a PSone memory card to it via the memory card reader.

If you go to "Game" on the settings menu when the PS3 starts up, simply create a new internal memory card, after doing so, assaign the memory card to a slot by pressing triangle. Then you should be able to save PSone games

I'm playing PSone games on my Ps2 and I am using a playstation one memory card. My ps2 loads from the memory card, but when I try to save data onto my ps1 memory card the ps2 freezes on the load screen.

YOU PROBABLY DON'T HAVE ENOUGH MEMORY ON YOUR PS1 CARD AND THE PS2 DOES'T KNOW HOW TO TELL YOU THIS BECAUSE IT WAS ONLY PROGRAMED TO SAY NOT ENOUGH MEMORY WITH A PS2 MEMORY CARD. TO PLAY OFF YOU SAVED DATA TRY TRANSFERRING YOUR MEMORY TO A COMOUTER THEN TO A PS2 MEMORY CARD... BEST OF LUCK

I am able to play PS1 games on my lim PS2, but why can't I save the games (even though the card is suitable for a normal PS2 console)?

You will need to go out and buy a psONE memory card or in some cases you can format a ps2 memory card to keep playstation one game saves on the card.

They are really cheap on ebay and amazon. Even a generic should be fine.

Comment if you need any help or have any more questions.

Psone memory card+controller=freeze

Try using different slots for the controller and memory card. If it still doesn't work then try getting a new memory card.

Can not create internal memory card, whenever I try I returned back to the screen that says name a internal memory card.

http://ps3explained.com/intermediate/internal-memory-cards/
Create an Internal Memory Card on the PLAYSTATION 3 system HDD as follows:

1. Navigate to [Memory Card Utility (PS/PS2)] under [Game] on the XMB.
2. Press “X” to bring up the “New Internal Memory Card” option.
3. Tell the PLAYSTATION 3 which format you want it to create. PS2 or PS1.
4. Highlight “OK” and press “X” to finish creating the memory card.

Note that you can make new saves on this card while playing PS2 or PS1 games on the PS3, but it does not allow you to transfer saves from a physical memory card to the PS3's HDD. You need the memory card adapter to do that.
