To get your display working with a Pi, here is our suggested config.txt:

#hdmi_safe=1

# uncomment this if your display has a black border of unused pixels visible
# and your display can output without overscan

# goes off screen, and negative if there is too much border
#overscan_left=-40
#overscan_right=-40
#overscan_top=-40
#overscan_bottom=-40

# uncomment to force a console size. By default it will be display's size minus
# overscan.
#framebuffer_width=1280
#framebuffer_height=800

# uncomment if hdmi display is not detected and composite is being output
hdmi_force_hotplug=1

# uncomment to force a specific HDMI mode Group 2 and Mode 28 is 1280x800 @ 60hz
hdmi_group=2
hdmi_mode=28

# This line will force the Pi to recognize the HDMI driver in video and audio mode
# change to =1 to have video only
hdmi_drive=1

# no display
