X60 - Win 7 - No On Screen Display

#1 Post by katiedawg » Wed Apr 09, 2014 12:24 am

OK, I'll bite. Anyone had any luck making the OSD work with Win 7? I've installed the Hot Key utility and it says it installed, but nothing. I've done this before when the X60 was running XP, and it installed like I remember on the XP build.

I've read something about needing the ThinkVantage Productivity Center software, but the only versions I can find refuse to install on Win 7.

Not a crisis, but it would be nice to have that back.

Thanks!

I had a similar issue with my x61s.
Just install all updates for windows including optional ones (well not the language packs).
Then if it doesn't appear then reinstall the utility.

This helped in my case.
X61 (T9300, 8gb RAM, 120gb SSD, LED SXGA+, integrated webcam, invisible touchpad, modded battery etc.)
X61s (L7500 led SXGA+ w. touchscreen, L7700),
X61(T7300, T7300 w. pinmod, T8300)
X1 Carbon, W510, T43p, Nokia booklet 3G etc.

That did it, plus it fixed up all kinds of little OEM things I didn't really care about from Lenovo. I reinstalled the Hot Key program and there's the OSD, nice and pretty.

THANKS!!
