Sounds like you are using a pal game with an ntsc setup or vice versa. You will need a pal2ntsc patch or a ntsc2pal patch for your particular game. Try here

U can solder a wire onto the motherboard that makes your PS2 permanently PAL or NTSC.

What happens simplified is that the PS2 reads the disc and makes a decision whether the software is NTSC or PAL and then outputs the signal to the TV accordingly.

By fitting a wire onto your motherboard u cand force the PS2 to always output in NTSC or PAL depending on what u want regardless of whether its a pal disc or ntsc disc you've put in.

Regards

I thought PAL and NTSC were video modes?

They are, what he is saying is that the disc determines what video mode the PS2 puts out to the TV. That is why if you try to play a PAL game on an NTSC TV it does not work properly. Using the link forces the PS2 to overlook the fact that the disc is PAL and it outputs NTSC instead.

It works fine. You need to be registered with ps2newz.net
