How do I fix a game that plays in black in white?

[loffler]

Normally when games from other regions play in black and white, your TV is not compatible with that region. If it is totally incompatible, it will flicker aswell due to the different frequencies.
A PAL/NTSC converter should have fixed this if it was applied right.
All the Y position does is move the screen up or down, not the colour.
The easiest way to get round these issues is to use scart leads which can play colour regardless of region.
