    My m11x r2 has oddly stopped showing the OSD for anything.

    Any tips?

    Can you be specific? I have been thinking of turning off OSD.

    Make sure that AlienwareOn-ScreenDisplay.exe is running via task manager. It, along with your BIOS, are what provide you with your OSD icons. If you don't see it running then make sure you have it installed. It's on the driver's page for the R2.
