GPU mishap

Hello everyone! I recently bought 2 GTX 550tis for like $20 and when i came to test them the following problems occurred:

1. One of them doesn't even go in the slot i guess its blocked by the case, so i cant test it at all

2. the 2nd one went in but when i installed drivers i got a code 43 in device manager so then i installed the drivers AGAIN and still the same code 43

 

Any ideas?

To make it short and simple Error 43 usually happens when its BIOS is corrupted, it's a dying card, flashing the BIOS can fix it.

DDU in safe mode and reinstall the drivers fresh new might not help you here... might be a shame but unless you really to use the GPU giving you the error you might as well give up on it before over-stressing yourself with it.

Hol up, i think its of because of my GTS450 and when i downloaded the drivers i got a filename(1) so could that be the issue?
