I shut the Pc down for awhile and then turned it back on and I was able to type like normal but now it's not recognising the router at all and says there are no connections available but I've still got my phone connected to the router and my Chrome cast ect I've tried restart the router and trying again aswell but that hasn't worked either I can't post another Speccy update until I connect to the Internet computers are so frustrating lol
 
Sorry to post again but I've just also realised that the fans on my GPU aren't spinning I've cleaned the GPU but fans still won't spin
 
Being a major update you may need to set up your wireless connection from scratch again.

Have you tried the Network Troubleshooter, right click on the Wireless icon on the taskbar to find this.

Regarding your games problem, you should try using a LAN connection, wireless is ok for convenience and browsing but it its is not very good at all for gaming as it cannot handle the load that LAN can.

Your GPU fans may not spin up until the temperature gets to a certain point and the thermal sensor gets triggered.
 
Okay I'll have a look at doing that today and yeah I have done the trouble shooter and its also telling me to get Ethernet connection witch dose make sense if I'm going to be gaming just bugs as me as the pc has been working perfectly up until now and unfortunately problems with PC's can be very difficult to fix especially compares to a console but once again thankyou very much for the help I'll try setting up my wireless connection again and see how that goes also that dose make sense about GPU fans but I noticed its actually flashing and saying on the GPU FAN STOP I wanted to do a benchmark test but I have an app on the computer that will do it and now I can't connect to the internet do download an app that can do it
 
No problem, get back to us when you are ready (y)

Just so you are aware, your Gigabyte GTX 1060 GPU has "auto fan stop" which turns off the cooling fans when the card is not under any load, this is to reduce noise and power consumption and to extend the lifetime of the GPUs cooling fans.
