corrupt memory card

**chulo_d** · 11-07-2004,12:48 AM

Ok,
So I was archiving my save files to my maxdrive but I didnt archive GTA:SA cuz I am currently playing it. Well when I went to delete the files I archived to the maxdrive off of the memory card, everything was deleted!! My GTA:SA save gone. Now the thing is that the card still says there are only 2 megs free, so my save data must be recoverable somehow right? Does anyone know how to recover these files, or am I S.O.L.?

U'll need to reformat ur card usinmg the ps2newz mem card killer.

Thanks for the reply. That will just clear the mem card right? But I will not be able to recover the data or am I mistaken?

no it will format MC, once corrupted, there is no way to recover it

yeah, unfortunatly there's nothing you can do about a mem card totally destroyed by Action Replays. Just kill it and reformat.

Uhm, once its reformatted its reuseable right?? I always though AR Max corrupts stuff..
but I also thought corrupt data could just be deleted through Sonys bios memory card manager...

AR Max has a format function when its at the memory card manager device selection screen (Read the scrolling instructions at thew bottom)

once you have formatted the MC yes it is reusable, not every corrupt file can be deleted through the browser
