when you say install, do you mean hardware or software..?

Software I think like games and programs

I wonder if it's "like" fixed.

I really don't want to reformat after I just did like a month ago, so do you have an alternate way of fixing the problem?

I had the exact same problem. It happened any time I installed anything, but the system worked fine for anything else. I had to reboot and reinstall every app, but then it worked great. The solution for me was to remove the Nvidia IDE drivers and let Windows use its own.
