The 990's menu only appears on the OSD, so you'll need to have the TV on and set to a video input connected to one of the 990's analog video outputs (composite, s-video, or component) to get into the menus. This differs from the 970, which also displays the menus on the front panel display. Does that help at all?

So, will the 990 show the OSD via a component connection from DVD player to 990 to TV Component in?

The 990 will show its menu for a component video input, but it will not show the OSD "pop-up" note such as volume or active input.

Yep, it will show the setup menu over the component output. For component video inputs, it will replace the incoming video signal with a black background and project the menu onto that. For s-video and composite video inputs, it will overlay the menu on top of the incoming video signal before the signal is transcoded to component for the component video output.
