Yes, that is obvious IMO, but how do we know that a different mother board would do the same thing, display that message? That would be easy to test for, on the PC at home, just don't connect the eight pin PCIe power cable.
I doubt changing to Windows 7 will make any difference, not at the hardware level like this.
I would not be 100% certain that the 1060 video is working perfectly from your test in the office PC. I would still wonder about the card until I knew it worked as it should, fully connected to a PSU.
The office PC might "know" there is a card in the PCIe slot, but that it does not work for some reason. So it displays that message. But since the video card did not have a power cable connected, it cannot work correctly. So I think that test does not prove 100% that the video card is working. Did the fans spin on the video card when it was in the office PC?
You could test your PC at home with a different video card. But that is about all you can do, besides trying a different PSU.
