First I'd like to say hi to the forum, I've been reading for a long time

And thanks to Megalexxx for his fantastic utilities, Pal Patcher is the best DC util by a mile!
I've got the JFM Border Down/Ikaruga pack, both games are on there, you select at the start with what looks like a hacked web browser, it's pretty cool.
Both games run at 50Hz on a PAL DC, so use Megalexx's patcher on the .cdi.
Search the whole image, and just search for Pal protection 2, it will find this code twice. Patch them both and enjoy both games at 60Hz!
