Just brought myself a gamecube and when i change it to NTSC its really 
flickery and so on. Would anyone know why as my xbox is in NTSC constantly 
so i can use the hidef output. In PAL the cube is fine.

Thanks

Well it's not outputting NTSC for a start, unless you have a Japanese or 
US Gamecube - it's PAL60 as far as I'm aware.  How are you "changing" it 
to NTSC anyway?  Just selecting the 60Hz options in games?

Sorry i should have said ive put a chip in it. Not seen any 60hz options as 
yet but hardly played any games tbh.

Just confused as to why my tv isnt likeing the ntsc output, maybe i should 
try another vidoe lead?

The PAL gamecube does not (normally) output NTSC, it's PAL60 as I said.
 All the chip will do is change region but if it is somehow forcing
NTSC output then that might be it, I don't know.  Almost all PAL games
have a 60Hz option, I've had no flicker problems at 60Hz with either
PAL games or US imports (using Freeloader), so it would have been safer
to take that route to play your games.
