Corrupted memory card

[SurfDrifter]

Hello,

I tried to use Region-X in my PS2 v.9 w/messiah2 and it said it wanted updated codes, didn't find any, so i gave up.

I went to play a game and the memory card wouldn't save.
I reset, went to Browser and ALL the contents weren't there. It reported empty, but with 6704KB free. I'm 100% sure it's regionx's fault, because i reloaded regionx and now the empty space was 7023KB.

The only game that could see it's own files was MYST III and i managed to load.

OK, i lost ALL my saves, but now the memory card is pretty useless. I cannot format through PS2.

Somewhere i read in here that Action Replay is needed, but it's hard to find and more expensive than a new memory card.
Is there any other way to format? Or buy a new card?

Thanks

You can format it with ps2newz MCard killer, here you go,

The MCard Killer worked and formatted my card,
Now the MC is fully functional, but due to this
i lost many of my saves (100+ hours of gaming)

Anyway, thank you for your advice.


Oh, just another question.
If i hadn't modded my PS2, how could i load the MCard Killer, since it was cd-r?

You could load it with swap magic but instead of wasting your money on swap magic, you could buy action replay cheaper and more useful.
