Hi,
After having tried to fix a stability issue by doing changes in the bios my computer crashed. After some hours I finally maaged to start windows but the startup has become much slower. Before the changes it took the system about 1 minute to start now it´s rather 5 minutes. Also many programs run very slowly now and scans that would normally take half an hour now take 3-4 hours. The sound doesn´t work properly either and the CPU value is much higher than usual. I´ve done some quick scans for possible viruses but nothing was detected. Maybe I need to run a full scan but that would take a lot of time. I ran some fast scans with Iobit Malware Fighter and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware. I´m not totally sure what caused these problems if it now was a change to default in the bios settings or anything else.

Hope that helps and looking forward to suggestions on how to solve this
 
I´ve run an antivirus scan, defragmented the discs, ran sfc/scannow but none of this was to any avail.
I also changed IDE in the BIOS settings to AHCI but his caused only crashed and made windows unable to startup beyond the black screen that appears short before the desktop is being loaded.
However, I´ve made some pictures of my BIOS settings which I attach here as well as a sfc document maybe one of you is able to get how this could help me identify the error.
The error I have now appeared shortly after changing something in the BIOS settings I think it was choosing fail-safe default or optimized default I don´t recollect.

Looking forward to suggestions on how to solve this

Best
