Changing the KS Roms won't do it, it's all down to slightly different motherboards, sorry... :(

Just a crystal, tv modulator and some other discrete things. It's quite trivial to convert Commodore computers from one standard to another.


Yeah, but if your not handy with a soldering iron or just can't be bothered it's can be a bit difficult for some folk to tackle... :)

OK, thanks for the info.  If the motherboards are physically different (and I do believe all of you!), then why is one able to boot the NTSC machine in either mode and a PAL machine in either mode too?  It must be some type of software trick fix?


I get what you mean but the software can only temporarily switch from NTSC to PAL or vise versa, to make it permanent you'd have to modify the motherboard... :)
