Can't edit boot/config.txt

Should I rather get a Vga to composit converter ?
-
@bradleyhollander I'm sorry. I can't help you. I only use HDMI screens.
-
@bradleyhollander The result with hdmi to vga will be be much better thatn composite to vga. If you use the composite video output it could output a really low resolution and the quality is kinda bad...
So try the hdmi "fix" and if this doesn't work at all, I would recoment using a hdmi screen more than using the composite output -
Ok will do thx

Why are people saying to run in safe mode? I understand to troubleshoot but what you really need to do is set the vga to the correct settings for your monitor.
hdmi_group=2and whatever hdmi_mode for whatever resolution your monitor is. For me my monitor is 1024x768 so mine is set to:
hdmi_mode=16 -
@edmaul69 That could be a better solution! I just shared what I die some months ago when I had the same problem.
-
Could it be my power supply I use a Samsung 0.7 amp. will that power a rasp pi B
-
@bradleyhollander You should use a power supply with a minimum of 1A (bare minimum). I would recomment using a 1,5A power supply.
-
That's probably my problem
-
@DarkWolf thanks for the help! do you think this was my problem?
-
@bradleyhollander that could be your issue. But if you are using an hdmi to vga addapter you still want to do what i mention.
