Solved How to use NTSC console in Europe

[johnyhunter]

I just bought myself an original xbox (NTSC). However I am currently living in Europe (Germany) which uses PAL. So there should be a problem with me connecting it to the power socket, since the socket has 240V and the xbox only needs 110V if I am not mistaken. Is there anything I can do/buy to solve this problem?
Thx in advance!

You would have to use a converter or get a 240v power board and take out the one in the Xbox and replace it with the 240v.

Do I have to do anything about the difference in Hz? Since european electricity comes at 50 Hz, but the Xbox uses 60Hz, or des it not matter?
