    On my other thinkpad I can change the OSD color by going to control panel, display, settings, advanced--there's a tab to set OSD. But in the x200s, there's no such tab. Anyone knows how to get the OSD settings tab? Thanks in advance!

    Edit (Solved!)

    I found the solution after finding this thread. Installed hotkey driver. Had to reinstall several times because for some reason the installation went forever. Finally I got the OSD tab in the Display > Settings > Advanced. :)

    Another caution: Before I found that solution, I fount an "on screen display utility" at Lenovo download site and installed it, but there was apparently a corrupted file, and the OSD was totally disabled, no on screen display, and the volume buttons didn't even function. Had to uninstall that.
