Tensorflow issue during installation windows 10 cpu only

Question

I am on a 64-bit Windows system with an AMD graphics card and I am having a persisting issue when trying to install the cpu version of tensorflow. I am using Python 3.5 and have gotten this message when trying to import tensoflow as tf :
