idling problems

Well, my car is idling at 2250, I tried to adjust it using the screw on the passenger side of the car (forget the name) and it didn't work. Could it be that the choke is stuck?? I have a 160* thermo, could this be the reason. I have no idea what it could be, please any help would be appreciated, thanks!
