So basically, I upgraded my PC like 3 months ago and it went perfectly, but, today when I booted it, I could hover over icons and apps, but I couldn't open any of them (only some when I was in safe mode) , then windows (the process) stops working and I get the message of:"Windows does not respond, end process or cancel" and I can't do ****.
Then, after a couple of internet, I didn't find anything useful, then I turned off the mining thing in my motherboard, after seeing it didn't help, I decided to turn it back on, and here I am now, my computer boots, I can even hear the fan, but nothing shows up in my monitor and if I shut it off via the power button, it takes a second, when it would usually take 3 to 5 seconds if I was on windows (personal experience)
 
so you have two issues, problems with Windows when it did start and now, it not starting at all.
perhaps they are related, but let's address the 2nd issue first.

you didn't mention the make/model of motherboard, but assuming it has an integrated graphics card, remove the GTX1050 and all the memory sticks.
clean their mobo slots and their contact pins then just put back one of the memory sticks.
if the PC still won't boot, try another stick of memory or another slot.

have you connected a speaker to the mobo header pins for one or does the mobo have one onboard?
if so, do you hear any beeps during startup?
 
I've fixed it, in case someone has the same problem, what I did was put remove the GPU and put it back in, because it didn't turn on, and afterwards disabled all services in msconfig when the PC boots, then enabled some specific ones like steam or discord, and works well now! Thanks for your help.
