Rob,
if it is polar alignment you need help with, you can try my method.
Works for me.

As for your settings after that, I can't help. I know nothing about your type of mount. I freaked when you said you only align (sync) with one star!
I have an EQ6 where 1 star alignment isn't very accurate so I do 3 star alignments.
