Did it go black as soon as you installed G force experience or did you tweak anything in it? 

 

Tried using the onboard graphics?

It went black as soon i installed G force experience, I have used the on board graphics and it works, also I used another card and it also works

Have you uninstalled G force and tried using the old card again?

Check Device Manager for the Display Adapters (show hidden devices) and see if the 1050 is still in the list.

Do you have a friend that can help? Can you try clearing the CMOS? Can you try booting into Linux Mint?

Look up "Linux Mint". Go to the first non-advertisement website. It should be a green page with a few news articles on the project. You'll need to go to download and get a copy of the OS from any mirror in your region. Once that's done, you need to get Ultimate USB Installer from Pendrive to create the bootable USB.

You'll find a battery on your motherboard usually above the first PCIe slot. You need to disconnect the PSU from the wall and detach the battery. Press the power button on your PC to discharge the computer. After that's done, take a flat-head screwdriver and bridge the CMOS_clear pins (consult your manual for the location). Put the battery back in and attach the GPU and power cable. Turn the PC on.

Either would be good for this purpose, but I prefer Cinnamon.
