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

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

                  # For more options and information see
                  # http://rpf.io/configtxtreadme
                  # Some settings may impact device functionality. See link above for details
                  
                  # uncomment if you get no picture on HDMI for a default "safe" mode
                  #hdmi_safe=1
                  
                  # uncomment this if your display has a black border of unused pixels visible
                  # and your display can output without overscan
                  # disable_overscan=0
                  
                  # uncomment the following to adjust overscan. Use positive numbers if console
                  # goes off screen, and negative if there is too much border

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

                          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?
