Computer just isn't working - Configuration - Mar 28, 2013
I have to boot in Safemode with Networking to get my computer to work.
When I boot regularly it just doesn't load anything I open up, freezes, can't use the internet, I think I may have downloaded something. It also could be that my Windows is not genuine.

Non genuine windows won't be the cause, or it would tell you.
What if you boot to safe mode and check the installed programs list in control panel. Sort by installed date, see what is new and maybe try removing that.

Just did that, nothing new shows up. I have no idea what this could be.

Just like the above user said, start pc in safe mode open msconfig and only check the required processes. Uncheck all the unnecessary ones, see if that helps.
From their onwards, you should scan with Eset Online Scanner and Malware bytes anti malware.
