[evillittlekiwi]

i am having alot of problems with my saved datas becomming corrupted. I would say it is a bad memory card, but it seems to only happen with my ddr games. concidience?
is anyone else having this problem? I can usually delete the bad data from the card and it saves fine for a while but always get corrupted after a while. Am i doing something srong or should i gett a new memory card?

thanks

I'd get a new memory card. It could be something with the method DDR uses to save the data is bringing to light an error in the card. I've got a lot of DDR data on my memory cards, and it's never been corrupted (knocks on wood).

I accidentaly corrupted my DDR files a few times. The main way files get corrupted (aside from a bad memory card) is when you power off the PS2 when it is trying to load or save data from the card. When that happens, just the file it was trying to save gets corrupted and the rest of the games are fine.

With DDR and auto-save, the game loads and saves data after each game and workout, so many times I would finish a game, turn off the TV and power of the ps2 without knowing it would be trying to save. Just like that, corrupted data . I'm extra carefull now and have no probs.
