How to Fix Nvidia Overlay Stats Showing N/A (Quick & Easy)

If your Nvidia overlay stats are stuck showing "N/A," you’re not alone — and luckily, the fix is simple.

✅ Step-by-Step:

1. Press Windows key + R to open the Run dialog

2. Type: services.msc and hit Enter

3. Scroll and find NVIDIA FrameView SDK Service

4. Right-click it → Click Properties

5. Under Startup type, change it to:

   • Automatic (Delayed Start)

6. Click Apply, then OK

7. Restart your PC

That’s it — your stats should now display correctly in the overlay.

Still Not Working?

If the issue persists:

• Make sure GeForce Experience is up to date

• Reinstall or repair Nvidia drivers using the latest version from Nvidia’s website

• Disable and re-enable the in-game overlay from GeForce Experience settings

Final Tip
