Greetings,

Welcome to the forum.

I am not a HP employee.

It is usually good to have the latest BIOS unless the BIOS update fails or is corrupted.

Are you using the latest Nvidia graphics drivers?

Your PC ticks all the requirements to run a 1050 Ti and above:

600 watt PSU

LGA 2011

Xeon processor support

I can only guess a possible thermal problem???

Have you run any CPU or GPU benchmark software and checked temps and stability while running the tests?

Maybe the 1050 Ti has issues.

yes i do ve the latest drivers , what do you mean by this ''

LGA 2011

Xeon processor support ''

and on the same form some expert talked about xeon that it does not support other latest nivida cards, on the web people says that xeon just supports very few nividia 3d cards...

anyway can you guide me that how can i easily auto update my bios...i ve done every thing but even hp.com  is just providing the text guides like a puzzle nothing else.

Hi Tech_lover,

This (Link) should download sp98273.exe which is the latest Windows 10 based BIOS update for your PC.

Install the update within Windows 10. Be patient.

Don't turn off your PC when doing the update.

I don't mess with Xeon processors. Too expensive for me.

A Xeon motherboard/CPU should be able to run a 1050 Ti.

Workstations, such as yours, usually use Nvidia Quadro graphics cards.
