    PS2 and Memory Card Help

    So i finally got my first PS2. Its the new slim model. I also bought a memory card.

    When I turn it on and try to play gran turismo, it tells me that no memory card is found in the slot. Is there something I should do when i get a memory card or is something wrong? Im hoping you PS2 vets out there can help me out here.

    Thanks.

    I didn't have that problem, and I just bought GT4 and the new slim PS2 two days ago...

    I know it had to format the card since it's new though...perhaps you can go into the browser and access the memory card, then format it?

        okay, i havent done any formatting, I was thinking maybe i had to do some "formatting" but i went into settings and not the browser option.


        I guess i dont know how to format it but i'll play around today and attempt to do that. I've never really had or played with a PS2.

        Thanks though, i hope that helps.

            Just wiggle it around, I realize that sounds a little weird but it works. I had an old PS2 which wouldnt recognize my memory card sometimes and now I have the new slim model and sometimes it wont recognize it either. Its kind of like its not getting a good connection or something.

                ok, i have tried wiggling it around a little and it still isnt working.

                Also when i go into browser with the memory card plugged in, It says "no data" is there something i am missing here?

                    Nope...mine autoformatted when I started up GT4.

                    You have it in the left or the right slot? And are you sure it's all the way in? I know it sounds stupid, but not sure. Does the browser show a memory card connected?
