Question NTSC to PAL issue

I currently have a ps2 PAL bought in Norway. It is chipped with Magic 3.

The problem is that there is a black area in the bottom of the screen when I'm playing backupped import games. I'm sure there is something I'm doing wrong but I can't figure out what...

Most games work perfectly (except for some original games that suddenly stops in loading areas), but when I try to convert a NTSC-game to a PAL-game to get color (I've tried ADR-patcher, ASA-patcher and pal4u 2000 on the games "Soul calibur 2" and "Marvel vs. Capcom 2") there appears a black area at the bottom of the screen pressing the image together in the top three-quarter part of the screen. Everything except that works fine.

Is there anything I'm doing wrong ?

(PS: I'm using a cd-r)

I dont personally do any NTSC to PAL conversions, but you may want to try something like this tool

You have to convert it to the same output your tv has, pal or ntsc.
