So, I bought an HP desktop in Tokyo last year. I started playing Batman Arkham City last year and at first there was no problem at all. Everything worked perfectly and the graphics card didn't make any noise. Earlier this year I started up a game after not playing for a while and there was a loud whine coming from the graphics card. I shut down, cleaned out the computer of any dust, but the noise has continued to persist even when I play games that previously never caused any noise. On top of that I get constant display driver errors when using the web or vlc player.
To clarify, it's a japanese machine running Windows 8.1 in English mode. I tried to update my BIOS but cannot find anything online.
Here's my system info:
