Windows 10: Could an old Windows build cause GPU issues?

So my GPU (1070 Max Q on a MSI GS65 laptop) recently failed and shows a code 43 error in device manager. Tried all kinds of reinstalling drivers to no avail. Had a chat with a MSI rep, and he asked me for my windows build. The OS build is 18362.900, which he said is very old. I was quite confused, as I always updated windows when it told me. He told me that I need to do a manual update via the Media Creation tool.

Just checking with you guys here, is that a good thing to do? I have always thought the windows regular updates I do would of kept it up to date....

GPU-Z 0.7.5 causing crashes on load up

Any chance you could narrow it down to which running application causes GPU-Z to crash? Ideally steps to reproduce for me here.

 

Major BUG: GPU-Z causes Windows 10 PC to hard lock

I am a proud beta tester of GPU-Z! Also, I have suggested many features/new functions over the years, many of which were implemented by GPU-Z author. *Smile
So, I like GPU-Z and do not want to use anything else for this.

Could be not GPU-Z, in fact. Maybe a combination of those latest AMD Radeon drivers+my Windows 10 being Insider Preview.
MY Windows 10 OS is the Insider Preview kind, maybe I should have mentioned that.

RE Core Temp, I have translated it into Bulgarian, and also suggested some new features, implemented by author (for Core Temp, just a few - less than those I suggested for GPU-Z). *Smile
So, likewise I like it and do not want to stop using it. *Wink
