Chris2000, yes it is possible!

Firstly, as BOT-CK mentioned you will require a step down transformer from 240vac to 110vac and this could be costly depending on where you get it, but if you ##### out www.maplin.co.uk and look for a product code NJ98, this converts the voltage for you and has a power rating of 30Watt's which should be more than man enought to run a USA PSX and is just £19.99 ($30.00 ish) according to their site.

Secondly, the output TV format of you PSX is NTSC and as you already know the UK TV format is PAL, most modern UK TV's are NTSC compatable but it may be better to run through a video recorder as these are nearly all NTSC compatable these days. If you get stuck for with the NTSC to PAL conversion then you can always purchase a separate converter but these are pricey, arround £60 to £80.

When you say you will be comming to Europe, will you be staying in one country or travelling arround as some european countries also differ slightly in the sound carrier that they use. This wont effect your gameplay, just in some countries you wont be able to hear it.
