Welcome to PCHF Alienjack10,

Restart the computer then do the following straight away;

Download then run Speccy (free) and post the resultant url for us, details here, this will provide us with information about your computer hardware + any software that you have installed that may explain the present issue/s.

To publish a Speccy profile to the Web:

In Speccy, click File, and then click Publish Snapshot.

Notice that Windows was only recently installed, can I ask if once you had installed Windows did you then install the drivers for the MB and starting with the chipset drivers first.

You have Windows updates that have failed to install, these need to be installed, one of them may just be a fix for this issue.

What is the brand and model name or number of your power supply.

I’ve installed the updates and I can’t find the brand name but it’s a 350w power supply

350W is nowhere near powerful enough to run a GTX 1070 as the minimum required is a quality brand 500W PSU with at least 33 amps on the +12V rail, not sure why you cannot find the brand of the PSU as in there may not be any information sticker on it for you to find but if there is no such information sticker on the PSU not only being only 350W and not having enough amps on the +12V rail the quality of the PSU will most likely also be very poor, see attachment below for the type of information that is shown on a good quality PSU.

Do you have a link to from where you purchased the GTX 1070.
