First off, you need a 1MB Fat Agnus in order to switch between modes on an Amiga. Assuming that's in order, you can flip between modes by soldering a switch between Jumper 102 or using a program such as Tude or Degrader after Workbench has loaded.

I remember bring able to choose between NTSC and PAL in the boot menu or was that only for the 1200/4000?
Yeah, but only because they came with Kickstart 3.x. The OP indicated he only had 1.3 and 2.x.

is there a way to tell whdload to switch to NTSC mode for ntsc games? I have been setting it in the boot menu but that is a pain.


In Degrader, you simply click on 60hz System and hit NoReset. ALL NTSC games from here on out will be NTSC without fiddling with individual games' tooltypes...
