Scarlet-Tech:
People are posting real problems. Of course a workaround is to "temporarily not use PrecisionX", but really, users are expecting PrecisionX to work correctly. I would hope that EVGA also has that expectation, but so far, I remain unconvinced, and am forced to use Afterburner for my needs.

I realize that. Precision X isn't needed for something like solitaire. Did you NOT notice the request to see what gpuz reports?

I suggest using precision X 4.2.1 or afterburner unless you need something very specific to precision X, like rgb control for the K|ngp|n cards.

I 100% wish Precision X was fixed, but I am not an encoder and can't do anything to help other than report the issues. As I have said from the beginning, report the issues or help them with coding... That's the only two options since they can not possibly test every single scenario out there, with every ssd, hdd, cpu, motherboard, gpu configuration there is.

We have identified an issue that may cause some DX9 game titles to crash, like Hearthstone, CS GO, etc. We are working on this and expect to have a resolution shortly.

Any Update on this Jacob?

Anybody try this yet?
 

I have tried the run time installer specifically to try and fix my missing direct x files with Windows 10 and the installer fails to finish. I did try this before reading your post as I googled the errors I have been getting and it seems to be related to older versions of direcxt x missing from Windows 10 installs, however I cannot confirm this 100% but it seems like a logical explanation (why else would I be getting the errors?).

EVGA Precision work well for me to controlate the working video card (clock, fan curve, temp, etc.), the problem sometimes is the OSD, it doesn't work.  Now I found an alternative for it, I´m using HWinFO64 + Riva Tuner for OSD control.
Time ago I tried with Afterburner, but the temp. of my EVGA GTX 960 went up to 72ºC, whereas with EVGA Precision the Temp was 59º C max, so I unistalled it. 

Another bug in this latest version. I reported this to Adguard and I was advised to report this to EVGA as well. Notice here.
 
Fault Module Name: PrecisionXServerHooks.dll_unloaded According to this the real cause of this crash it their library hooking ours (why would they do this?)

- The option for "START UP OFF" and "START UP ON", will "Apply a predefined profile at Windows Startup", per the tooltip.
- The option for Settings -> General 1/2 -> "START WITH OS", will "Start with Windows at bootup", per the tooltip.
 
I think you are wanting the 2nd option I described, not the first.
And I agree this interface is not intuitive at all.

Thanks!

You're welcome.

Please excuse me for not reading through the thread, but has anyone had problems with a memory leak in this latest version? A minute ago "EVGA Precision X 16" was using 900mb according to task manager in windows 10 pro.

Jacob any eta on the dx9 bugs solved ?

Running PrecisionX 5.3.7.  So, I don't just do gaming on this machine.  I do work also, and this:
 

 
beyond being annoying to see it, it just isn't right.  Must PrecisionX put its OSD hook into everything with a UI window running on my machine?  Sysinternals process explorer shows PrecisionXServerHooks_x64.dll hooking into all kinds of software on my machine that I don't think it should.  Likewise, some software (Logitech setpoint for one on my machine) is conflicting with it.  Just my opinion, but maybe it should primarily only hook full screen processes (i.e. games, GPU benchmarks etc) and then maybe offer an opt in for windowed processes (not an opt out) if someone wants the OSD in a window.

Jacob, can we atleast get some info about fixing the crashes caused by PX in different applications like Media Players, various games, 3D modeling packages and the odd application? Are you guys working on something? Or will this keep going for another full year? Maybe hire more programmers? It isn't just flat out revenue and ignore the issues. That is how a company falls down, you know. Tell your management to check history of a lot of companies. It is always what the company considers "Small things" that ends them...
 
Seriously, you guys are THE top NVidia vendor and not fixing this PX crashing issues will be your downfall.
 
My 2 Cents...

5.3.8 is already out now.

Silence is not good. Obviously they are having serious issues with this software themselves. It should have been pulled a long time ago until actually fixed.

Did you forget 5.0? They pulled it with in days and everyone whined, after screaming it should be removed. So, yeah.. Pulling it does nothing but cause more complaints.

Why won't my OC stick with Precision X?  I have a profile set, but every time I start my computer it's back to stock settings or if I am playing a game and I leave the game to say go to the web, it reverts back to stock settings. Also, whenever I try and run 3DMark program it reverts back to stock settings, so I can't benchmark my OC.  What gives?  I have to use Nvidia Inspector to get the job done.
 
Thanks
