I bought a used laptop on Facebook Marketplace for $50. The seller had some problems and didn’t want to pay for repairs. The machine starts up fine, but I’m having trouble using the 3080 GPU. It has both AMD Radeon integrated graphics and the 3080 chip. In Device Manager it lists the 3080, but when I try to install drivers it either fails or gives errors. I can’t open the NVIDIA control panel either. Please help—it’s a Razer Blade 14 with a Ryzen 9 5900HX, 16GB RAM, and the 3080 from 2021.
