    I'm not that desperate - I can live like this for now:) Besides, I'd 
hate to part with my good ol' motherboard...

    The pots are back to their original positions. You mention the squashed 
50Hz picture? The subcarrier crystal is a PAL one - I didn't notice any 
squashing with the current settings on my TFT monitor - should there be? Is 
this because the source "scan" is still NTSC and adapted to PAL just by 
changing the subcarrier frequency?
