Hi Fahadwaseem

 

Your h8-1090d PC does not have a UEFI BIOS. Most Nvidia 700, 900, or 1000 series graphics cards require a UEFI BIOS to work correctly.

 

You may be able to upgrade to an Nvidia 600 series graphics card.

 

Sapphire makes some AMD graphics cards that will run on a Legacy BIOS.

 

MSI also makes some AMD cards that will work and one Nvidia card (GTX 750Ti).
