Do you mean the driver is turning inside the hex? You could try to dremel a slit in the head of the screw and remove them with a normal screwdriver.
A picture might be helpful.

The other things I have found that sometimes works is to use a hex driver one size up and try and wedge it in to turn it. Usually I use an imperial hex driver that slightly bigger than the metric correct one, if that makes sense?
