            @thebear123 can you give me the model number and brand of the monitor? We could help you set the correct resolution if we knew more about the monitor

                  @thebear123 so you need to open up /boot/config.txt and change your hdmi_mode and hdmi_group to this:

                  hdmi_group=2
                  hdmi_mode=36
                  

                  This is the setting for 1280x1024@75hz

                      @thebear123 Could you uncomment the following line in /boot/config.txt?

                      hdmi_force_hotplug=1
                      

                      This should force a HDMI mode even though your monitor doesn't support it.
