No before i upgraded i had the vga and hdmi in the pc ports and the 1050 does not have Vga ports so i connected the vga cable on the pc ports and when i turn on the computer it gives me a message to plug everything to the gpu

Indeed. VGA is not supported by modern cards. So if you're VGA monitor only has a VGA port you're a little stuck.

It might be possible in the BOIS to enable both integrated and discrete video, but that isn't that common.

You're other option is to get a HDMI to VGA converter similar to this: https://www.startech.com/uk/AV/Converters/Video/Compact-HDMI-to-VGA-Adapter-Converter~HD2VGAMICRO there are several around so just search with "HDMI to VGA".

Final option, get a new monitor
