I have the same issue with Vista x64 while running EVGA Precision or anything else that uses an OSD type of setup, even with OSD disabled in Vx64 I can't get Steam messenger/OSD to come up. Close precision, and it's all good. Kind of sucks, but same thing happened in W7 beta x64 too, but a buddy of my on x86 does not have this issue. I'm over it anymore, since my clan mostly uses teamspeak I don't really have much of a use for Steam OSD.
