    anyone have success with pc save transfers to new slim ps2

    posted a few days ago that my sharkport disc can't be read by my new slim ps2, somthing about the company no longer being around so sony didn't want to support the product or somthing. also with further research(google) i've found out that the max drive does not work as well. does anyone know of a device that will work to transfer files to the ps2 from the pc? i saw a usb card at eb, has anyone had any experience with that, or does anyone know of a device that doesn't use a disc for the ps2 to transfer files to it? i'm sure somthing will come up eventually since the old ps2 will no longer be avaible, i'm just hoping there's already somthing sooner rather than later.

    I've been using the max drive with the new slim PS2 with no problems, but I've only used it a couple of times.

        Me too, I have the maxdrive and had 0 problems, works great. Is the cd for the sharkport/x-port your using have a blue backround, is so that might be your problem, plus I wouldn't use any disk that has blue backround in my New Slim model.

            Re: anyone have success with pc save transfers to new slim ps2

            went out and bought one today, 29.99 at eb (a little hard to find). only problem i had was with the computer (win xp), it wouldn't auto load the disc and then wouldn't manually run set up either. but apparently the pc program is fluff and not needed to copy files onto the flash disc. so if anyone was wondering, the max drive does work with the new ps2. here's hopeing it becomes the dominate format of choice for future roster downloads (or at least equal to that of the sharkport). thanks for the info from above.
