You have my sympathies, owning one of those pieces of junk.  An unstable
monitor screen is fairly normal, and there is nothing that can be done
about it (believe me, we've tried!).

The G-Lock gets control signals from the j/port, and prevents the Scala
dongel working with it.  If possible, dump the G-Lock and get a Neptune or
similar.
