      @dankcushions Ok, I'll figure out a way to do that after the Pi is done updating.

                @galaga please use proper markup as per https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first - we can't read that properly

                      @Galaga Help! What a mess!
                      @dankcushions Sorry for getting into this thread :(

                      Disable all HDMI things at first!
                      A working config might be....

                          Well I would rather use Composite as using a HDMI --> VGA converter.

                            @cyperghost he isnt able to use composite on an arcade monitor. He has to be able to seperate the rgbs

                              Ok I've tried a couple different things and I've run out of ideas. I know it's probably some stupid little thing I'm missing, but I have no clue why RetroPie is ignoring config.txt even with overscan_scale=1. Is it a glitch?
