Ok, I asked these questions because the greyscale problem happens when you hook a NTSC Ps2 to a PAL television (which supports NTSC signal) without the proper cable.

Anyhow, if you imported a NTSC DVD from the United States, your PAL Ps2 shouldn't be able to play it. It's not difficult to guess the problem of the "dark screen" is caused by your old TV.

Anyhow, is the DVD you are playing NTSC? It should be written somewhere on the box.
