So I have this slightly old pre-built, (i3-2120, 4gb RAM) and I wanted to put a GTX 1060 inside. I installed Windows on the rig, then installed the graphics card afterwards. The PC wouldn't boot past the BIOS splash screen, and I heard several beeps:
1 short beep (I'm aware this is normal)
6 Long beeps, with the case's light even blinking orange in sync with the beeps
1 long beep, followed by 3 short beeps (The case's light didn't blink in sync with these though)
Looking those up, I can't find anything related to the 6 long beeps.
Taking the 1060 out will result in a normal boot into windows. Putting the GPU in reverts to what I mentioned before. I tried finding new motherboard drivers, nothing's available.
PSU: 550w Corsair CX550M
SSD: Adata 60gb
GPU: Gigabyte GTX 1060
BIOS: American Megatrends
