Messiah modded US PS2 ... problems

[johno69]

I've now tried everything and have now got through 8 CD-R and still I get a rolling B&W image!

I think the problem is that all the patches are for US NTSC and I'm guessing I need Jap NTSC because I live in Japan and have a Japanese NTSC TV. However, for the CD games I want to backup (Quake 3 Revolution, Starwars Starfighter - both UK PAL) I can't find any Jap NTSC patches.

I'm getting desperate now - short of just going out to buy a PAL TV in Japan, is there anything I can do. I thought my pre-moded Messiah 2 US PS2 would play the PAL games automatically - that's why I bougt it. I've read most of the posts in this forum and and there are lots of posts re PAL-NTSC, but what about PAL-Jap NTSC - or am I missing something?
