      Be patient. Someone will help you when they find this topic. Take your time with the modules. It gets easier with time

        @hnperkins said in Display Help:

        disable_overscan=1
        hdmi_group=1
        hdmi_mode=16

        Just curious. Have you tried without this?

            ok, cool. And the custom res was because Raspbian did not support your res? Was there a res close to what you wanted?

              @Mykle1 no i just tried the custom because on first boot it was exactly how it is in the picture so i tried the custom and nothing changed. i just tried again with an empty custom and its still doing the same thing. almost tempted to start all over from fresh

                Did you change the res in the raspi config at all?

                    Just out of curiosity have you checked the settings on the actual monitor itself?
                    I’ve had to adjust the settings on the monitor itself to achieve the desired resolution.
                    Sometimes cycling between Wide - Normal - Full can make all the difference.
                    You may need to reboot you pi after the changes (unless it detects automatically).

                        Ok, well that’s good news.

                        What modules and what problems are you having?
