PS2 Memory Card Save Failures

First of all, apologies if a similar thread has already been made. I searched but couldn't find anything.

I recently purchased the PS2 Greatest Hits version of VF4:Evo. The game plays fine, but it has problems saving anything. It always fails to load the file system the first time, but you can load it later. However, you can't overwrite the file with new data. Suspecting perhaps a corrupted file, I've tried numerous times to delete all VF4 saves from my card and start over, but this hasn't worked either. The error message is always "Failed to Save."

For all my other games, though, I've never had any problems saving to my memory card, which still has 4MB free. I have saves for TTT, T4, SC2, Dynasty Warriors 3, and some other random games. It's only VF4 that doesn't work.

Anyway, have there been any other known issues of this? I don't see how this problem is related to the disc, since the game plays fine, but I guess I'll just return it if I can't figure this out.

Thanks in advance for any help.

 

Wow, that fixed it! I modded my PS2 so long ago and would never have thought of that fix. Thanks a million! <3
