Just press both mouse buttons while booting the 1200, and in the early boot screen, press a key and it will change to 60hz if i'm not mistaken.. :s

thank you very much! I cannot test it till next week. I'll tell you something!
thanks again! :) I'm very excited about seeing it at 60hz because all my computers and consoles have that frequency.

You might find that it doesn't stay that way. If the NTSC monitor driver is in Devs/Monitors, and you select and save a 60Hz mode using Prefs/Screenmode, then it should display at 60Hz.

Hi

   This sounds very much what I would like to do.  I am trying to find a hack, setting, hardware mod to turn a 1200 Pal computer into a NTSC computer.  Other than replacing the power supply is there anything else I need?
If I can\\\'t drop it and fix it, then it wasn\\\'t broken to begin with.  It just needed power applied.   :quickdraw:

Surf the web and find Warren Block s A1200 FAQ, there it mentions a hack that can be done by cutting a resistor of the mobo.
