I want know really as safe using a Memory card with 64 mb in pcsx2,because i have and play many games for ps2 and do not want to take heavy risks to lost my saves games work.
Actually i used a lots of memory card with 8 mb,and one of 32 mb and never had a problem.Now i want to tryng to used a only 64 mg mem.card.
What would be the real level of compatbility?because in the derscrision (pcsx2-m.card option)causes a impression of very low compatybility...

moving to support section.
In answer to your question, most newer games support 64mb cards, but early games, especially CD games can have serious issues with them. Sega Superstars Tennis refuses to even boot with a 64mb card.

It's probably safer to use a frontend like PCSX2Bonus and have a different card for each game. If you just have one big card and something happens to it... >_<

You can always have it as a separate card. Just copy the saves to that 2nd card as an 'archive' (by booting into the PS2 BIOS aka 'No Disc' setting in the menu) and keep your active game saves on the main card. you'd be surprised how long 8 MB lasts. Unless you're saving every possible time and playing 4+ different RPGs while doing this, you won't fill up the entire memory card very easily.
In fact, I can't even remember any time where I filled up my entire PS2 8 MB memory card.
