Question I am having issue installing a GT 1030.

[INewbie]

My PC is 10 years old and I have just bought a GT 1030 from Gigabyte. After installing the Graphics card and plugging it on to my monitor, it doesn't start. From what I know, the beeping it made means graphics card problem. After researching, I found out that my BIOS wasn't set to run the PCIe slot. I set the Initiate graphics adapter to PEG/PCI but the graphics card won't boot. Please help. I am using AMI bios v02.61 1905-2009.

You need to list your full system specs. Don't forget to include exact make and model of your PSU.

I am aware that my PSU can fully provide power for the Graphics card. My pc specs are:
CPU: Intel Pentium (R) Dual core e5700
3gb of ram
Intel Hd intergrated graphics
PSU Atx450
Eekoo 120gb

You have the necessary expensive equipment needed to test your PSU? Have you already done the thorough testing?
I really don't think so. Also still not seeing exact make and model of PSU. The only things that you mention is it's size (ATX) and it's wattage.

Yes, I don't know. It's a 11 years old PC after all. But I don't think the PSU was the problem because I can still see the Graphics card working. I think the problem is in the BIOS where it did not take the output from the PCIe slot or something.

And I am using a HDMI to VGA to plug in to the Graphics card.

You can open the case and take a look at the sticker. Even better, you can take a photo and upload it to imgur, pasting the link here so we can all see it.
How do you "see" the GPU working since you have no output? You only see it getting power which is NOT the same with working.
