Very Unusual Memory Card Problem

I hope someone can help me and If not maybe point me in the right direction. I have a slimline ps2 as well as a old model ps2.I can't save God Of War or Area 51 on the slimline machine.I can save as well as load both games on my older model on the same memory cards that don't work on the slimline.Actually,the slimline will load both of those games fine.But when I try to save it says save failed,then acts like it can't see my memory card.I can save various other games on the slimline with no problems.I can open my memory card in the explorer and see all my saved files.The cards work fine on the older system.I loaded up my God Of War Save on the slimline.It works.But when I try to step right back into the save and save it says "Error Saving Data"I am really stumped on this one.Please help or direct me.I appreciate your time and thank you in advance

I have heard of games that were not compatible with the slimline. If you can still load, the game might not be designed for that ps2. It is mainly those big games, you know the ones with really good graphix and lots of sound. It may be too much for the little ps2. I have heard the little ps2's have less internal memory for running games, mainly for space. I have one question, can you save the game if you don't let a level load before saving? (Load, don't load a level, and save) If so, the incompatibility may be the problem. Let me know, nvic.

hi there

not heard of this one before , however i have heard of the memory allocation being in a different place , and therefore when you go to replace the info part of the memory dump into the machine , it can only put half or so back in to the correct address .and hence an incomplete program is dumpled .when read it is read with errors .
