    Hi guys! I managed to patch OSD_Main.exe program that cause problem.
    If you have any problem, please let me know.

    P.S. I only tried with Dell's Alienware M15X.

    With latest bios (A09) and latest Razer Mamba driver if you toggle dpi "Binary GFX detected enable ?" will popup . Since M15X doesn't have integrated graphic card you can't change it. That is bug in Alienware OSD software.

    I can ensure you that file is OK. :) Also I can try to make patch in C and post code here, if is not forbidden.

    I haven't seen any bugs on my M17xR2 with Mamba (latest BIOS and mouse driver)

    Cheers

    You are lucky guy! I really had much problems with AW OSD and Razer drivers. I think that problem was with Mamba driver, but it is easier to patch OSD app.

    You should copy .exe where you have installed Command Center.My path is "C:\Program Files (x86)\OSD". Just replace files and you will be OK. P.S. Sorry for late reply.
