No Module Named '_pywrap_tensorflow_internal'
While trying to validate the installation of tensorflow-gpu, I get an ImportError when trying to execute "import tensorflow as tf". I am using a Quadro K620 on Windows 7. Tensorflow was installed using pip.
The following is the stack trace:

I have looked at multiple other stack overflow posts which things like correcting the path but I have not been able to solve this issue.
I came across the same issue today, please switch to cuDNN v5.1 Library for Windows instead as @mickdelaney suggested and then try to
Check environment settings of CUDA, normally all the settings of CUDA had been added to Windows environment
Copy files in
bin,libandincludeof cuDNN tobin,libandincludeof CUDA respectively. Normally the directory isC:\Program Files\NVIDIA GPU Computing Toolkit\CUDA
And then you can import tensorflow and run your code. Good luck!
I found the solution for the CPU: It worked for me
Just run below command if necessary then update it
pip install tensorflow==1.5
