Anyone know how to get this model to recognize my GeForce PCIe 1050 Ti.  I have an 800 watt power supply installed.  I disable the integrated Intel HD 630 graphics, then installed my card.  Tried to start up and blank screen.  Was able to force windows to refresh monitor and get the display to come on only if I was connected to the motherboard HDMI port.  Opened device manager and saw that integrated graphics were still disabled, but the when I tried to scan for hardware changes, the 1050 never showed.  I've tried several times with the same result.  The only thing I can think to do is to uninstalled the integrated graphics but that seems a bit extreme if the machine is not detecting the graphics card in the first place.
Beyond frustrated at this point.
Please help!

    I actually was able to get the GPU to work once I reinstalled the original power supply, which was adequate enough to handle the 1050ti (just barely).  I'm looking at adding more RAM as well, so I know I'll probably need to upgrade my power supply anyway.
    This trick you showed me was something I could not find anywhere but here.  Thank you for the advice.  If a new power supply makes me have the same issue I'll use your advice.

    Hi Rufusevengaming, Please follow this steps to detect the graphic card:
    Click Start.
    On the Start menu, click Run.
    In the Open box, type "dxdiag" (without the quotation marks), and then click OK.
    The DirectX Diagnostic Tool opens. Click the Display tab.
    On the Display tab, information about your graphics card is shown in the Device section. You can see the name of your card, as well as how much video memory it has.
    If issue didn't resolve, kindly reply to comment.
