Can anyone recommend any other software and if possible tell me why NTSC was faster (thus a "stock" overclock) since there is a program that switches on NTSC but gives full PAL height resolution?


If it really gives full PAL resolution then it's most certainly not switching to NTSC-mode

Overscan can give you PAL resolution in NTSC mode, can't it? (Not that this seems terribly helpful to the OP.)


Nope, you can't get 256 lines on NTSC (and even if you could, you'd still not really get PAL resolution, as it's still larger with it's overscan area).

NoNTSC - Grab back the lines lost from your non-PAL software.


Yeah, that program only opens an NTSC-program on an PAL-screen, so you're still using a PAL-screenmode.
