V7 Problems

[lufcfan]

Hi guys,
My V7 PS2 is playing up. It reads games fine and the laser is perfect, but when it tries to cache files to memory it seems to randomly hang and crash, but on fairly light games where not much is required, it's fine. Bad memory? Who knows, but hopefully you guys will... Any suggestions would be great before I go out and buy a new one, Thanks... :)

I had a memory card crash my ps2 once. I guess it could be that but when it happened to me my PS2 would no longer recognize the MC. I had to buy a new one.

The card appears to be fine... :(

On second thoughts, tested with another game save and it's perfect. Looks like I'm reformatting my cards with QA Tool...

SO HAPPY :):):):)

Glad to hear it all worked out!

I knew it had to be memory of some sort. Just glad it was my MC rather than onboard memory :rolleyes:

(Even if I have lost all my game saves including my completed GTA: VC and 3 saves, grrr... :mad:

Do u use 3rd party mem cards or official sony ones? Have had lots of cheap makes bomb out on me but official sony card and MadCatz cards have always bin tip top. :D

[lufcfan]

These were official Sony cards... :(

Doh!! The cheap T**ts must be making poor quality mem cards too now as well as cheap consoles. Very poor!! ;)
