You are adjusting the cold idle speed screw(fast idle), the Warm Idle screw on most I have seen looks like a screw you could turn with your fingers.
Usually has bumps around the outside edge, with a screwdriver adjustment in the center of it.

Make sure you have the right one, it is usually obvious when you look at it close.
There is a TPS adjustment, multiple syncing adjustments, and the cold idle adjustment, in addition to the Warm Idle adjustment.

I keep wanting a picture of the Warm Idle adjustment to send to guys when they ask, but don't have one yet.
Anyone out there have a good pic?

Hope this helps!

Dude, U gotta laugh!
Then why ask about it? lol
(Had to kid ya, was laughing when I read it.)

Seriously though, I get this question a bunch, is why I was asking if anyone has a pic of it.
It isn't so obvious to everyone, or they, like yourself, wouldn't ask.
A pic would be very helpful in this case.

Anyone have one?

Okay. We all have sleds 100 feet away. Someone who know grab their blackberry and post a pic. ( even an iCrap phone could do this). I am curious. I usually idle at 1500 last ride not less then 2500 at idle. Could not kick it down at all.
