I bought a copy of swap magic 3.8 installed it and used the slide card. I get all the way up to the screen where it ask me for what mode to use. Normal mode,Special,SM Boot or cheat mode. What mode should I use. PAL or default or NTSC?. The dvd disc I use is a DVD-plus the game was copied from 5 star game copy. What do I need to do after all these questions are answered. Thanks.

Just use default then take the swap magic disc out, then put the game disc in and then select normal boot by pressing X.
If you want to activate some cheat codes then go to cheat mode.

I found some issues with booting from SM 3.8. It's a good idea to get a bit torrent client (like Azereus) and download something like Zoneloader or DVDloader (search on www.isohunt.com) to help with boot issues on NTSC progs...

This was a major help to me. Hope it works for you too. Though I use SM mainly for save games that can be downloaded from online (things like the option file for PES6 with all the kits etc...).

If you need any help with these then feel free to mail me ...
