New card Wont work

[somthingwierd]

I decided to help out my friend by upgrading his pc woth a new graphics card. but every time we try the card's fan just runs at full blast but no signal comes out of the card. If we switch to the mb output it works. I bought the card used so no drivers cd came with it and the Nvidia drivers says we cant install them because it doesn't detect an Nvidia gpu. Im stumped.

Specs:
Hp paviloin 6000
CPU: AMD Athlon II x4 630
MB: H-Alvorix-rs880-uatx
New GPU: PNY GeForce GTX 650 1GB

PSU: EVGA 400w

Try it in another pc first to check if it's really dead.

Hp motherboards can be really picky with GPU's so that can be an issue aswell.
