Ok, I tried today my 2nd PicassoIV ... it has some weird problem I think.
I tried it on a freshly arrived A4000D that I got for a friend. I put it, waited a while and it displayed excellent the 3.1 KS screen....
BUT
early start-up menu, pIV menu, 3.1wb disk etc cause the monitor to power-off... I tried 2 different 17" CRT ones that worked OK with my 2 A4000 (picassoIV/Arxon sd)
so I connected the PIV to a zorro slot on my g-rex4000D , without the ff module inserted (connected though to PIV because the previous owner used it with an A2000) , and via the voodoo3 I finally displayed the PIV menu... PAL/NTSC settings where to 75hz, one required 41khz monitor and the other 47khz...
so I pressed reset to defaults, they changed back to the 50/60hz modes both 31.1khz monitor... I press USE and rebooted... but still the rom had the 75hz settings! bah
Do I need to configure it with PicassoModeTNG? only this will work?
the card is already 7.4 flashed (won't let me flash again)
and p4info tells me I have the latest bridge/sd-ff chips ($4 and $7 IIRC)
should I swap it with my "good" pIV and use PMODETNG to adjust pal/ntsc to defaults? I am looking for a simpler way that does not involve dissasembling again my 2nd A4000D
any ideas? :-D

The firmware has a bug I think. I had this too; resetting the settings doesn't give you a Save Changes button unless you also set the Capture Interlace button different from what it was. Only when you press the Save Changes button the settings are changed in the firmware.

really? Thanks Flashlab!

Yeah really, you have to press Use and in the next menu Save Changes if I recall correctly! Doesn't hurt to try!

You can then change the setting of the Interlace Capture back after you have reset the firmware and save it again.
