Need help on diagnosing issue

AYDANN6ix9ine

So to keep it short, I took an old 2011 HP Pavilion PC and upgraded its power supply and graphics card (GTX 950). I tested the graphics card in my personal system and things worked fine. But when I booted the whole new PC up, it would go the startup screen and just stay there with no response. I tried many things, like clearing CMOS, rearranging memory, but nothing worked until I removed the GPU. When I removed it, I used integrated graphics and everything was working normally. I thought the GPU was the issue then but I recalled that it was working fine in my own personal rig. There was also a beep code that had one longer beep and then three really quick short ones. I am honestly very discombobulated right now and debating what's the issue. Could it possibly be the Motherboard not recognizing the card?

prebuilts are generally really tedious about what you can put in, most likely it is just the board not wanting to recognize the card.  I dont personally know of any ways to fix that tho that wouldnt involve a whole motherboard replacement
