you can either ssh into it and change the config from there...

or i put the sd card into my pc and use notepad++ to open and edit the config file

uncheck, means to delete/remove the # from the line

go into the deep settings (dont remember the verbage) by pressing f4 and i believe raspi_config or something like that. Id find the exact phrase but im working.

Once you get there check your advanced settings, and resolution, make sure the resolution is set to default. this fixed that problem for me before
