I would like to inquire about why upgrading the GPU from GT 620 to GTX 1050 on my PC did not work.

The original PC specifications are as follows:
1. Motherboard - Lenovo IdeaCentre K430
Serial # - ***removed***
BIOS Date - February 16, 2012
2. CPU - Intel Core i5 2320 @ 3.00GHz
3. GPU - NVIDIA GT620
4. Memory - 12GB DDR3
5. Storage - 2TB HDD
6. PSU - iCute ATX-450W/P4
7. OS - Windows 7 (Original)
Windows 10 Pro (Installed on July 25, 2020)

When I tried booting the computer after installing the new GPU, it went only as far as the Lenovo title screen. The GPU fan did work but there were 3 single beeps after, then the monitor showed "no display".

Thank you and stay safe.
