    Maybe you need re install again and make sure say no to save profiles. Make sure you close Evga Precision X and  Riva tuner Statistics Server close first before uninstall both! Then restart Windows and do install normal!

    I don't have any of the OP's games but I do regularly get a Precision crash in Arma2 ( using 4.10 + new  OSD server).

    I'm having the same problem. I had it with the previous version and I'm having it with the latest version. OSD will not work in any games. It used to work fine with no adding of profiles or re-installation, help please?

    I dont like the new OSD stand alone program as it is. As it was was cool. But seems to be a pain now. Going to look into it further after I have receovered some stuff.

    not only it does not work in all game but also some game doesn't even launch (Tomb Raider etc) when precision OSD overlay is running.  I use to get around this by selecting "compatibility with modified Direct3D runtime libraries" in the option but now that option is gone. 
     
    I'm forced to roll back to ver 4.0.0

    I can confirm that OSD does not work in World of Warcraft, it has not for a few versions.

    That's exactly why I removed it from Precision. Too complex for "average Joe" user and gives too many headache in forums. OSD was not supposed to be in Precision at all, OSD was not a part of contact/dev.budget, I was too stupid to add it to Precision per my own wish to help experienced users and blamed myself 1000 times for this decision.
    I intended to remove it from Precision at all in 4.1.0 to stop this "I cannot configure OSD" nonsense and leave it for more experienced Afterburner user base only. But still decided to give experienced Precision users a chance to use it, at least as additional third-party install. So it is now left as an optional install for experienced users only with non-EVGA EULA. Those who cannot read documentation, install and configure it properly should simply avoid installing it.
    Any issue mentioned in this thread can be solved by simple documentation reading but nobody ever reads anything.

    It is now right in the main window and called "Custom Direct3D support".  Could be solved by reading release notes.

    Lack of 64-bit applications OSD support is reflected in the release notes as well.
