The case of 3DMark Vantage and the NVIDIA PhysX drive

According to VR-Zone information, the drive named in the title overwrites some system files in the test program.

The NVIDIA PhysX driver overwrites some DLL files in 3DMark Vantage, which causes the Ageia physics accelerator cards to be disabled, while the PPU-capable NVIDIA cards — GeForce 9 and GeForce GTX 200 — work perfectly. This problem is not helped by replacing the NVIDIA VGA with an ATI Radeon VGA, since the original DLLs were lost during the aggressive "activity" of the NVIDIA PhysX driver.
