HP pavilion HPE h8-1114
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

So recently I bought a MSI Geforce GTX 1650 and I installed it and booted up my system (which is a factory HP pavilion HPE h8-1114 with a 400w PSU and an Intel core i5-2400 with a GT 520 GPU) and every time I've tired to boot into windows I get stuck at the boot screen, my newly installed GPU then proceeds to beep and after about 20 seconds it beeps 3 times I'm guessing that means something but hell if I know, I've seen on other forums that you have to update your BIOS or do a CMOS reset but I can't find any BIOS updates available for the motherboard (PEGATRON Carmel 2) so I'm kind of stuck and need some help with this one.

@KingSevvy,

Your computer is circa 2011.  It has Legacy BIOS, and has WIN 7.

1) The GTX 1650 is a UEFIvBIOS based card. It will not work with a Legacy based BIOS.

2) The BIOS (7.16) is linked to the original WIN 7 64 bit.  No update was offered.

 

Sorry, but I need to be critical.  In your previous inquiry I did explain Legacy vs EEFI , and did ask you to verify same.

I did update it from Windows 7 to Windows 10 your saying my BIOS doesn't support this card which I figured out shortly after posting my comment would this mean I need a newer motherboard to support to card? I'm guessing so, do you have any recommend any motherboards that can run a GTX 1650 with a LGA 1155 socket also I need it to be within my PSU's powering capablity also to support DDR3 ram?

@KingSevvy,

I would be simpler to purchase a gaming machine.
