hey gang

i downloaded the demos to top spin 2 and the outfit

all other demos work that i have downloaded

these 2 come up with errors sying they wont run in pal-50 and that i need to change to pal-60

2 things:

1. i go to the display settings and it says im running at the highest resolution at pal60

2. im using vga connected to my pc moniter, so i thought pal50/60 doesnt come into it

will this be a concern when i play games that require pal 60, like hitman i believe

Switch your 360 back to standard definition (use the composite (yellow plug)) switch the settings to PAL 60.

EDIT: It is a bug, or an oversight. Even though HD and VGA only runs in 60Hz the 360 will still come up with an error message if the standard def output is 50Hz.

It could. I'm fairly certain a few games need to be run in 60Hz.
But once you fix the problem, you don't need to do it again.

I'm pretty sure the error is due to lack of testing with PAL consoles.

It could, and does, happen with full versions. The sound is all f'd up in Oblivion if you have it set to 60hz.
