you will need to solder the 'chip' back but there is a big chance of you screwing it up, so it would be easier if you buy a new memory card

What do you mean transfer it into another memory card ? The PS2 does not read the case it reads the chip and the chances are the chip is either corrupted... memory cards aren't that expensive anymore maybe $25 a piece.... if you have swap magic or a way to boot homebrew you can try a program called MCKiller which will reformat dead memory cards you can find that here: http://www.sksapps.com/mis/MCKiller.zip Besides that there is no other way to reformat a memory card.

NOTE: you will loose all the saves on the card if you use the tool above because what it does is revives the memory card if it was currupted and allows you to start over like new but then again if you buy a new one you will do the same.
