The OSD on my TV is constantly on, taking up 10% of the screen, letting me know that I'm hooked up to hdmi 1, 1080p. the only fix I have found so far, is to activate LCD overdrive in amd catalyst control center, which triggers the windows 7 basic color scheme. I upgraded the drivers to the latest version however, and LCD overdrive is no longer there. Is there any way to get it back (i tried reverting the drivers) and what programs out there force trigger the windows 7 basic color scheme (doing it manually doesn't work)?

I said in the post that it doesn't work, i get the color scheme but the OSD doesn't disappear. Something in having it forced on by a program will trigger it off.

Every tv and monitor since the early 2000's or earlier has had some form of menu, where you can alter display settings and which input you're receiving on the screens. I might be using the wrong terminology though.

That's what im trying to figure out. no other device does this. normally whenever i switch to a hooked up input, it'll show the input for 5 seconds and then disappear, doesn't come back. When i hook it up to the PC, it's always on, but only when windows fully loads, it doesnt happen while in BIOS. Do you know of any LCD-esque 'overclocking' for a lack of better term programs or a program that will force trigger windows 7, like an old game such as starcraft 1.

It's a generic Dynex TV, and there were no settings to disable the OSD.

I tried that already, no good.

You don't know of any programs that could force trigger the basic color scheme, or how to get LCD overdrive back?

I know that old source games (half-life 2, counter strike (the original, not the source engine version), or maybe even the original half life). They shouldn't eat up into your computer at all.
