	Yes it is possible.  **>>On the Amiga 2000<<**, there is an
internal jumper on the power supply that allow you to select the
Amirican or the European standard.

	Which monitor do you own?  The C= 1081 will aotomatically
adjust itself to the PAL or NTSC standard.  You can also manually
change the vertical size of the C= 1080 by an internal control.

	You also have to change two things on your 2000
motherboard.  The Agnus (8361) chip (I don't know about the fat
agnus), and the system clock.  NTSC' clock run at 28,63636 MHz and
the PAL' clock run at 28,37516.

	You should contack your C= service center for doing the
chip swap.  They will inform you about the part numbers of the
cristal and the Agnus(FatAgnus) chips.

	Good luck,
