    just wondering if anyone has experienced frustration with getting any of the prologue iso's to work? I have burned both the ConFuSiON release and some other jap one but both are being freakin gay. They bootup just fine, in fact the whole game is there and I can play it but... the screen is completely distorted! with crazy waves going up and down the screen. I have no idea whats going on. I thought I would try running the images right off my ps2 hd, to see maybe if was burning it wrong. But both images play exactly the same. Does anyone know what I need to do to get this to work please!!! Please help me, im desperate!
    (ive backuped tons of PAL games, and im not doing anything different this time)

    It seems to me to be a PAL game.
    (and your running NTSC or vice-versa.)
    (If you have swap magic)
    Try running in Pal mode.
    Then using "square" button for special boot.

    Heres a thread to convert NTSC to PAL,

    http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/121718

    But it says gt4 prologue still runs in PAL mode.
    (even after converting.)
    If you converted the ISO
    It should stop the distortion, but i would expect the
    screen to not be centered and be in black and white
    Thought i would post it in case you still wanted to try.
    "TAKEN FROM ABOVE POSTED LINK".

    Well that actually that was the first thing that came to mind but... I have a DSM4 chip installed. I thought that pretty much made my PS2 region free... so i could play Pal or NTSC games? Do I actually have to patch the games before even though I have a DSM4 installed? And if not I just use the "square" button for booting the game properly? Haven't heard of that before but I will try thnx.
