06:10 Alternative MemCard Pro Workflow?
Turn on the ps1 with both memory cards (the pro and the card with the save you want to move) plugged in, with your MemCard Pro in slot 1. Choose the game of the save you want to copy on xstation and allow the memcard pro to create a virtual card for the game. Now, Turn your ps1 off, open the tray, leave it open so the xstation isn’t read, and turn your ps1 back on. You should eventually be at the blue screen with the access to memory cards and cd player. Choose memory card. Your memcard pro is still on the last game that was played- the title of the last game should still be on the memcard pro’s screen…..so take the save from that game in memory card slot 2, and just copy the save over to the memcard pro. Once it’s copied, turn off the ps, close the tray, turn on the ps, and select the game on x station. When you go to load your game, or auto load in some cases, it will work! Do this per game. Don’t put saves of other games in. This eliminates the need of taking out the sd card to use on the computer, and not needing to look up the serial number for the game either!
