I recently got a used Amd Radeon HD 7570 from Ebay, and I decided to try it out. But when I did nothing came up on my monitor, every fan and light was on like it was appearing to work but it wasn't.
My pc is a
Hewlett-Packard HP Compaq 8200 Elite SFF PC
with a core i7 2600 with 8gb ddr3
 
Solution
- First I suggest checking whether you run a power cable from the Power supply to your video card, it helps also to boot PC with side panel open to check whether video card fan is spinning, and obviously have the monitor cable hooked to the new card output.

1- Attach your monitor video cable to your motherboard rear I/O video output (instead of your new video card), so you can get a display when you boot your PC, if successful >> step 2

2- Here is a detailed guide (but needs some navigation effort through it's + signs) on how to enter Bios and the menu you would expect >>https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/bph07110#bph07110_ad Basically in order...

My bios doesn't consist of any of those settings it goes file then others cant remember but the first column is file not main.
My last column is advanced but doesn't have any setting included in the photo.
I have the bios on figure 2 of this link https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/bph07110



Could the problem be because I had an vga cable connected to the motherboard and not a display port or dvi port connected to the 7570?

I see the answer has been chosen... but to clarify on this last question: Yeah, that would do it. You have to use one of the ports on the graphics card to actually use the graphics card. And depending on bios, it may automatically disable the motherboard graphics if it detects a graphics card.
