Please use the edit function instead of triple posting... :)

I can't make heads or tails of your three posts I have to be honest. Let me try though..

1. Your PC is suddenly slow but only in certain programs?
2. You have coil whine on your GPU
3. It takes a while to compile? So add that to #1?

When you have a moment, please create a signature with your system specs in it like in the first post (USER CP -> EDIT SIGNATURE).

Have you tried reinstalling windows? Honestly, that is about the easiest thing to do... outside of checking temperatures (Realtemp).

But calm down, make sense, and use some form of punctuation as your posts are very hard to follow in your panicked state!
 
ok and no reinstalling my windwos:( takes too long to abckup my files and too many things on it:( but if only chance i gonna do! it i also attacked a example of what im talking about in chrom
 
You should have a proper backup already... And reinstalling, if nothing else works, is the direction you want to go. I have a feeling that virus left things a bit messed up to which a reinstall would resolve the issue.
 
https://db.tt/55yeilih im backing up my files reinstalling will tell u results:) also making signature whit my phone while doing:)

it gonna take while guess scanning my external hdd for viruses first to be sure it not gonna infect after re installing!!!! i got 555gb of data there:(.... scanned my pc already

Ohhhh goood i cabt belive what i have doneee after moved all important files to a folder i restardrd pc and formated my hdd whitout moving files to ex hdd;(( oh god im so stupid!!
 
reinstalled widnows whitout backup:(( installing myleware bytes and some apps will tell if any problems:(((
 
Sounds like a faulty motherboard, but I experienced horrible slowdowns on one of my systems, turned out to be a dying HDD (scans gave sooooooooooo many bad blocks and errors). Considering Windows, these things are hard to diagnose.
 
re insttalled windows and got fixed don't think it could be the mother board 0_0:!!! anyway too many things to do download but now its ok and super fast:) damn I hate this coz my net is limited and downloaded 40mb I guess from when and 23 mb is downloading :S (firefox)

OK good, don't randomly download stuff now like torrent and such, that's how you get those crazy viruses. Hope you didn't lose too many important files, I've been there and it blows.
 
kamran, learn how to partition your hard drive, how **not** to save any personal data on the operating system partition, learn how to drive image, how to connect an external drive to a power extension cord with an on/off switch so you can backup the data you care about on it and then use the switch on/off to only connect it to system when you need to use it. Develop a strategy for using Windows like that to save yourself both time and frustration.

If you have a drive image of an OS partition when everything was exactly how you want it to be, it can take as little as 5 minutes to image/reimage that state so that WHEN, not if, something goes wrong, you are back in business in five minutes or less ;).
