OptiPlex GX620 + GeForce GT 710
I recently purchased a video card EVGA GeForce GT 710 1GB 64-Bit DDR3
to install in an old OptiPlex GX620 I have had sitting under the desk.
when I install the video card, I never get a video signal from it to the monitor, If I connect a VGA monitor to the onboard graphics I get an error that there is a video card connected.
Has anyone else used these cards with GX620s? my end goal is to use this card to output video to a large TV for playing Netflix/youtube etc (no gaming/just streaming)
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

You cannot USE or connect onboard video when you have a card in the X16 slot.
This is not supported. There are no issues with the Geforce card.
You get a VERY SPECIFIC message.
System halted!

I fixed the problem, the Bios on the MB was too old to properly use the new card, updated bios , and the card works .
