            @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
            overscan_scale=1
            overscan_left=10
            overscan_right=10
            overscan_top=-8
            overscan_bottom=-4
            
            
            # uncomment to force a console size. By default it will be display's size minus
            # overscan.
            #framebuffer_width=320
            #framebuffer_height=240
            
            # uncomment if hdmi display is not detected and composite is being output
            #hdmi_force_hotplug=1
            
            # uncomment to force a HDMI mode rather than DVI. this can make audio work in
            # DMT (computer monitor) modes
            #hdmi_drive=2
            
            # uncomment to increase signal to HDMI, if you have interference, blanking, or
            # no display
            #config_hdmi_boost=4
            
            # uncomment for composite PAL in 4:3
            sdtv_mode=2
            sdtv_aspect=1
            
            #uncomment to overclock the arm. 700 MHz is the default.
            #arm_freq=800
            
            # Uncomment some or all of these to enable the optional hardware interfaces
            #dtparam=i2c_arm=on
            #dtparam=i2s=on
            #dtparam=spi=on
            
            # Uncomment this to enable the lirc-rpi module
            #dtoverlay=lirc-rpi
            
            # Additional overlays and parameters are documented /boot/overlays/README
            
            # Enable audio (loads snd_bcm2835)

                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?
