You have nothing to fear from fiddling with clock settings on a flat panel. That only ever applied to CRT displays where running the horizontal frequency higher than the circuit was designed for would increase the HT voltage at the final anode - which often cracked the thin glass on the tube neck. Flat panels do not have a concept of scan coil to drive, there is no HT transformer and there is no tube to have 28kV inside of. The owrst you can do is to get no picture. -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com
