Hello, I have a Acer-Predator g-3620. I had a GTX 560 Ti, but finally wanted to upgrade to a GTX 1060 3gb FTW 2 Fans. After I installed the GTX 1060, I started getting beeps. Sometime's I get 1 long beep then 2 short beeps, but I fix that beep by reinserting the GPU. But now I get like 6-7 Long Beeps, and have a feeling its either the mobo or the power supply. Also I on the Device Manager I get Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43) on my GTX 1060. So I could get all the way to my desktop screen, as I am typing this right now.

My Specs are:
Liteon power supply ps-6451-5 450W.
Intel Core i7 3770 @ 3.40GHz
16.0GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 665MHz
111GB KINGSTON SVP200S3120G (SSD)
931GB Seagate ST1000DL002-9TT153 (SATA)

I've already tried resetting my Bios, updating the drivers, resetting the CMOS, and checking my on-board graphics. This is my first time upgrading a GPU so any help would be nice.

Thanks
 
Solution
A good quality PSU like EVGA G2 or Corsair RMx, get a 550w.
For mobo just get one with the features you need. No need for Z series chipset as you won't be doing any overclocking with that CPU.
It is likely that you mobo or BIOS doesn't support that card. It happens sometimes with brand name computers and their proprietary mobo and bios.
Also i'm not sure about that PSU. If i remember correctly the GTX 1060 requires 400w and like 20A on the 12v rail which is more than your PSU can deliver, it has only 16A and 18A on 2 different 12v rails.
