As it turns out, it's pretty irritating to have a chunk of your screen be covered in a tinted black bar with bright green text of "3D LASER SIGHT ENABLED/DISABLED" when you play a game and you hit the key that enables/disables the sight. Yes, thank you Nvidia, I know I just hit the button.
In the past it seems that there was a way to simply delete the bitmap from the drivers that had the lettering/background used in the OSD messages. This changed at some point. Right now, it would seem that the best we can do is hex edit a few DLLs (nvwgf2um.dll and nvd3dum.dll) and essentially leave the previously mentioned on/off text as blank instead. This, however, still produces the massive bar that would include the text.
Is there a way to get rid of this monstrosity completely? I don't really care even if it removes the whole OSD from 3D Vision. The information it gives is hardly ever useful anyway. Mostly it's just nice for seeing the depth bar, but I keep that maxed. And it does not even show it for convergence, so it's pretty useless.
Has anyone had success regarding this?

Whats worse is when you run into the big red "system as been downgraded to 2x AA due to resource" issues when playing in 3d and surround.
Particularly annoying in some games where it will appear every-time the game loads.
I haven't been able to find anyway to turn this off, in fact in the GRID games I get this message even if the game has AA off.
