    So if sys-file is not a miniport driver then it is possible. And that article is about XP. Most probably newer versions of Windows improve that matter.

    I mean, changing drivers hasn't needed a system restart for awhile now.
    I'm not sure if it's as simple as disabling the card, changing the files, and re-enabling the card. I have to imaging the driver installer does a lot more then that.
    Like, what about the registry? Does NVCP break?

    I also wanted to simply mention that, we've been able to fix and change a lot more though NVidia's powerful profiles using Inspector then actual driver versions. That may be why changing driver files is not as appealing on the green side.

    while its not forced i still have to do it every time.
    windows wont remember the settings after a reboot (like DSR) for instance.
