Turn it off.
turn it back on. Then give it a very stern talking to, including the threat of reprogramming with a rather large axe. Hit it with a variety of hammer like implements, including, but not exclusive to, actualy hammers. Well - once you've done that you've exhausted al computer knowledge so best ask IT geek/nerd/helpful people on here.  Hey - worked for me, well, the last bit did anyway. |

I would suggest that if you have formatted and its still running slower than it should then the hard drive is the most likely culprit although its not always so straight forward. It could be the motherboard but from your description I don't think so.
