Did you change the boot order in the BIOS so the USB is first?
No as (a) wasn't directed too and (b) am scared of making PC worse. And (c) don't know how to do it.

I downloaded Windows 10 onto a USB, have tried to then download it to PC but keep getting an error message. It tells me to turn PC off and to reboot it. Will keep trying!

2020-02-21T11:23:32+00:00 My USB stick is 128MG. When I put it into USB slot it says USB is faulty and needs to be formatted.
This is why I have a PC technician come and check it out before Christmas and ever since nothing but problems. He said because I chose one with big memory the USB drive details needed to be changed.
I will give it a go. using USB, will let you know how I get on. Thanks for the reply MarcTec13!

You need a minimum 8GB USB stick.
Then use the "Create Windows 10 installation media" to create a bootable UBS stick. Once it is created (this will take a while) you will need to boot from the stick and reinstall your PC.
