I have now rebooted the playstation and now none of the games work and I still cannot get the menu up on screen.

Please help

Hold down the power button when you boot the console up and it will perform a reset of the user configuration including the screen settings. Your saved games etc will still be available though.

Just keep holding the button down until you see a picture on the screen, the console will beep a few times whilst it's doing this.

PAL PS3's never used to be able to play NTSC discs (video encoding not region coding) and vice versa but that was fixed in a later update and should work now as long as the TV supports it.
