So, I was looking to buy a NEW XFX 280X (at the current price, it´s the best  280x in my country) and I decided to look for a used one cuz Y not, and I found A Gigabyte 280X with the triple fan cooler at less than half of the price of a new one-Awesome, right?

 

The thing is... the owner says that while opening any game there´s an error because "the driver is not responding" and he isn´t into tech so he can´t fix it.

 

I need your help, please tell me how to fix it, do I need to update the driver or something more complex or is it broken beyond repair?

 

I would be etternally in debt to this forum if you could help me fixing it.

 

 oh and btw sorry if my engrish isn´t the best.

by misspelling the word English in that sentence is a strong proof but hey, me too. 

1 question, why didn't he get it to those IT store to have a look to fix? Maybe he knew that the card cannot be fix and try to scam you. A guy that has a 280x don't seems that stupid to me.

It's smell problems

Did you mean " It smells problems" or " It's a small problem"
