CPU-Z and Blackbox won't load anymore? CPU-Z stalls at graphics; ?

Only thing I've changed is I enabled PhysX on my ATI, but even if I turn off physx virtual monitor it still doesn't load :(

Indeed it seems very likely that that is the issue. Try this:
-Download an older version of CPU-z that does not have the graphics tab and run it and see what happens. (basically, version 1.51 and below)
-Download GPU-z and see if it will run. If so, see what you can and can't look at.

But yeah, I'm pretty sure that the hacked drivers is the reason.
