The look of this dialog has been changed for the newer versions of the '''old GUI''' and you still may have a version with a different look. There are two memcard slots in PS2 so you can have up to two memcards plugged in at any given time. Each memcard is a file 8.5Mb in size placed on your hard drive in the folder '''memcards''' (by default). You don't need to do anything special about these files. PCSX2 will create them if they don't exist. Your game will format them if the files are new. You can copy these files and backup them (it's a good idea to backup them sometimes), swap them, upload your saves to the Internet, give them to your friends stuck in the game or even transfer them to the real PS2 memcards so you'll be able to continue playing on the real PS2. The real PS2 memcards can also be transferred back to these files but these two procedures aren't so easy.
