The PSU in that computer doesn't meet the minimum requirements for the graphics card. This is almost certainly the cause of your problems.

The computer came prebuilt by dell and worked great for years (1) I only upgraded the RAM From 4 to 8gb

Ah, new information. Try taking out the new RAM; it may be bad. Or it still may be the PSU - components can degrade with age. The sort of behaviour that you describe is normally a hardware failure.
