Hi all,

I just got Swap Magic 3.3 cd with slide card today and it works great!!! I was just wondering if anyone knows me what the 'Special Boot' (when you press square) mode is used for when loading up your game???

Also, if i wanted to play a NTSC game on my PAL PS2 with a PAL TV, would i set the video mode to NTSC or PAL???

Any help would be greatly appreciated :-)

Not exactly sure myself what this really does. But if your backup doesn't boot using the 'Normal Boot', then try the 'Special Boot' and it may boot up. This has happened to me on 1 of my backups.

I haven't tried to run a different region on my ps2 before, but it seems as if you would want to choose 'NTSC', worst comes to worst try PAL if it doesn't work.
