No...all he has to do is set preferences to interlace mode...save it..then 
re-boot...it will not change the screen to interlace mode even if you use 
the USE thingy. I just tried that yesterday actually..and had the same 
problem..it kept switching back to OFF, I simply put it ON, SAVEd, and 
rebooted and it was in interlace no problem...perhaps a BUG? I dunno.
