    All of a sudden my on screen display settings are not appearing. I am talking about the volume and screen display settings that usually appear on the screen when making changes. Is there an option I might have turned off by accident?

    Thanks

    You might want to re-install the Hotkey drivers.

    I tried. Didnt' do the trick. Can't find where I would remove them and just have windows rediscover.

    Did you maybe update the video driver with one straight from Intel or Windows Update? I think you generally have to use the vendor-supplied driver to get the OSD stuff to work.

    I uninstalled the old hot key software. Rebooted, installed the new hot key software and all is back to normal. Thanks for the assistance.
