FRAPS Shenanigans - Bizarre Physics Issue

[DOHstep2013]

Does anyone else get this?

 

I was going to try to do the Benchmarks series recommended by S.T.E.P.

 

I installed FRAPS, and started Skyrim.  When the opening sequence began the physics in the game just went nuts.  When I would look around it seemed to propel the cart into the air, horses flew, trees were toppled.  It seemed to be tied to where I looked, but the other cart in the game also spun wildly out of control and jack-knifed, killing the horse.  Contact with the terrain seemed to effect the situation as well, with the slightest bumps sending the carts into the air.  Everything ended up in a pile of bodies and one NPC simply flew away on horseback.

 

This behavior was directly repeatable - it would occur when I installed FRAPS and stop when I removed it.  This was on a totally vanilla freshly installed game.

 

Has anyone else had this experience?

Never heard of it... I had a similar problem once though, although I really can't tell why it happened, since I have done all sorts of things with my Skyrim install and lots of stuff i didn't really understand myself.
