I'm having an issue with OSD working period. I've verified what I want to be displayed in the OSD settings within the Precision OC software, made sure it's on. I've had the games both in the server list and not (at this point I was trying anything to get it to work). Is there something I'm missing? I've been scrolling through forums and videos for hours trying to find a solution as to why I can't get the OSD to work in any  game I have ran. I'd appreciate any help.

    Welcome to the forums..Can you give a few game examples as well as what version of Precision XOC and your video card and OS and other hardware?..Are you running any other monitoring utilities and what were you using before for OSD?
     
    First thing I would try though is uninstalling Precision XOC and then deleting the PrecisionX OC folder located in the Program Files (x86)\EVGA folder..Then reboot your PC..Then install the latest version of Precision XOC (Version 6.0.7) and roll from there.

    I appreciate the quick reply. I'm not at my PC at the moment and will try to uninstall and reinstall when I am home this evening. I will put a bit more information here though.
    System specs:
    CPU: Intel i7 4820k
    Ram: 16GB DDR3
    GPU: 2xEVGA SC GTX1080 SLI
    Precision OC ver: 6.0.7
    OS: Win 10
     
    I haven't used any other monitoring utilities other than the ones that come with the game clients (steam displaying FPS, battle.net displaying FPS and GPU temp on a single GPU). The games I have attempted to use the OSD are Shadow of Morrdor, Overwatch, and Witcher 3. The Witcher 3 game does not have a client, it is through GOG and downloaded without the GOG client.
     
    I will reinstall the client this evening when I get home and update.

    I deleted the software, the folder in the Programsx86 folder, than removed any registry files remaining. I rebooted, redownloaded and did a fresh install, than rebooted again. Fired it up and suddenly the OSD is working. Which is good news, but frustrating because a few days ago I did the same thing when the previous version was the current version and I still had issues. Still it seems to be working. Really appreciate the help bob!

    Sure thing..Yeah, that Profiles folder with the .cfg files which remain after uninstalling Precision has caused various problems for some people when updating/reinstalling Precision, including me, with some things the OSD server..Some things in the OSD server haven't worked right for me with any versions newer than 5.3.8 (in both Win7 and 10), but that's just for me..Removing/cleaning up Precision leftovers with Revo Uninstaller (Free) or CCleaner (Free) are other viable options too..Hopefully it stays fixed for you.
