Ian, I'm no expert but you may need a PAL monitor to get it to display correctly on. Or OTOH you may end up having to scroll down to "see" the balance of the PAL screen on your NTSC monitor. My 10c worth Laurie Carroll AKL NZ Longdistance Autopilot

I have been able to get PAL to work with my old kickstarts (1.2 and 1.3), it the 2.04 kickstart that's confusing things. Maybe an updated Degrader or bootswitch. I have a 1084S, with will autoselect between 50/60Hz, so there is no problem there. Ah, well,… I keep trying.

Ian, Try this, Ref in the WB2 manual 4-7 AddMonitor to 4-10 Bindmonitor. I think you need to have the PAL monitor Icon in the Monitors Drawer on your system disc..eg DH0: if you have a hard drive. You have to drag the Pal icon from the MonitorStore drawer to the Monitors drawer and then dble click on the copy there to activate the AddMonitor programme which sets up your system so it "knows" that your particular monitor can handle both Pal and NTSC. I was reminded of this in relation to similar problems people were having in getting their A4000's set-up to display properly. Laurie Carroll AKL NZ Longdistance Autopilot
