I just bought a 2nd hand graphics card and installed it, I installed the drivers and then tried to reinstall the drivers, but this is still happening. When I try to play a game the game boot properly but after a few seconds to minutes it freezes and I get a message "graphics driver has stopped working and has succesfully recovered, then I get a message "gamecannot acces graphics driver" and the game shuts down or freezes.

Could someone please help me?

If you still got your old GPU, put it back in and see if you still have this issue.

 

Also make sure your old drivers are uninstalled.

 

If the issue goes away with your old GPU then, you should know your answer from there :)

Do you mean it is broken?

Well, I guess the first thing you can do is.

 

Uninstall all graphic drivers on your PC, then restart your system.

Power down your system and re-seat the graphics card. 

Power back on and download the appropriate drivers. If you still have the black boxes, try the following.

 

Uninstall all graphic drivers on your PC, then restart your system.

Power down your system and put your old graphics back in.

Power back on and download the appropriate drivers. If you no longer have the black boxes, then you have a bad "new" graphics card.
