I have an HP Pavilion HPE H8-1120 desktop computer. The graphics card I'm trying to install is the EVGA GeForce GTX 750 1 gig.
Motherboard: IPISB-CU(Carmel2)
CPU: Intel i7-2600
RAM: 8 gig DDR3
GPU: GeForce GT 530
So here's my problem. I want to upgrade the graphics card so I can play games on higher settings. It currently uses a GeForce GT 530 perfectly fine, but when I put the GeForce GTX 750 in, the computer turns on but stops booting up at the blue HP intro screen and the card starts beeping. I figured it's probably the terrible 300W PSU so I switched it with an EVGA 500W PSU with 40 amps on the 12V line. As far as I can tell the card doesn't have any 6 or 8 pin PCI-E connectors so I just have to put the new card in the slot. I've updated my BIOS from the HP website and it still hasn't worked.
I tried disabling the GT 530 through device manager. I've tried uninstalling the GT 530 completely. Nothing works, the computer won't start windows or even let me use Esc/F2/F8 functions while booting. It just stops at the HP screen and beeps. I'm thoroughly confused and need some help from an expert.
For now I've simply taken out the GTX 750 and I'm using the GT 530 fine. I don't think the card is DoA because I just sent one back thinking it was DoA. Something has to be wrong with my computer.
Any advice would be very much appreciated.
