    well that didn't work. anyway with ADR Patcher I got an error saying "Couldn't find any patch locations: Image probably already patched". I tried PS2 PAL > NTSC.

    when I tried copying the .iso with hdl_dumb-0.4 I selected the .iso (that I created using nero) and hit install and got an error box with the title "unexpected error"

    Ok that is strange then that it wouldn't find the location.

    You can try this PAL to NTSC convertor and see if you get same error.

    what is the name of this PAL game?

    Every time I've tried, its been too busy to download that program, but the PAL game I have installed is Eyetoy Play 3. Now I have it on my PS2's hdd, but it sounds like these programs are only if you have the .iso on a PC? is there any way to convert the file that's already on the PS2 HDD? I believe that it's written successfully, I just can't play it with it flickering so much.

    Yes these programs are for when the ISO is on the PC

    There are no programs to use on the Hdd itself.

    You can either use Winhiip 1.7.6 to copy from hdd to pc, then back again or you can use hdl_dump_gui-2.1 or similiar to copy over the network.

    Ok, that process seemed to work, thanx for the guidance on that, but it still is flickering.

    I noticed the program says PAL to NTSC, but when I start it up it says NTSC to PAL, what's up with that?

    I have no idea why it says that. Someone must have renamed it, sorry about that.
    Thats why it wouldn't work.

    You can just use the ADR patcher 0.5 then if want, it works well or there are more at sksapps.com

    Ok, I'm trying ADR patcher 0.5 again and it runs fine this time, but I'm still getting the same flickering.

    I'm selecting the .iso under file, then selecting .PS2 PAL > NTSC PATCH ROUTINE (NO Y POS) and hitting begin search. It then says "Found 1 patch locations. Do you want to proceed?" I choose yes; and it says patch complete.

    That's the correct process right?

    Ok, the first time I did this it didn't work, but I tried it again and it seems to be working now. Thank you very much for all your help and being so patient with me.
