I have an A3000/030/25MHz NTSC machine (also displays PAL screens of 
course).  When I tried attaching an AmiGen genlock, it fouled up PAL mode 
(when I tried running a PAL program or PAL IFF (i.e. 320x256)).  I got 
rid of the AmiGen, and now have an IV-24 (also has a genlock).  Once 
again my PAL mode is screwed up, so that the rows appear double-spaced 
and flicker.  The screen is once again fine when I change back to NTSC.

What would be causing this, and how can I fix it?

Thanks.
