 22RE idle problems

Well as the thread suggests I'm having problems with the idle on my RA65 Celica. Basically when then car has a cold start it idles really high, like up to about 1500rpm at the most. When the engine warms up it eventually goes down but only to about 1100rpm. I have adjusted the idle and the screw is all the way in, I can't turn it any further. The other problem is that when I start it during the day, even on a cold day it will then idle at about 500-600rpm. But as the temperature gets warmer the idle drops even more. I've got no idea what the problem is, my guess is that it might have something to do with the AFM but I am not sure. From what I have been told there is a thermistor under the bonnet that measures the temperature in the engine bay and will adjust the idle according to how hot the bay is, is this correct?
If anyone could help me out I would really appreciate it.
Cheers!

Idle Air Control valve? I'm not sure if the 22RE's have similar issues to the 7M's, but do a little research on that perhaps.
Sorry to be vague

Yeah I figured that the screw shouldn't be all the way in, that's why I thought that there had to be something wrong.
Actually the A/C doesn't affect the idle speed at all. The A/C is affected by the idle though rather than the other way around. The A/C will get cooler as the rpm increases and goes down again when it decreases. The last owner told me that was what the old models used to do, but looking back on it now it just doesn't seem right.
I've already replaced sparks and injectors and all that stuff, so it would have nothing to do with them at all.
This electromagnetic idle air control, where is it located? Do you have a pic of it anywhere at all? Would it be possible to just get a second hand one and put it in?
