So I bought a second hand pc, it is 4 years old.
These are the specs:
i5-3570k
gtx 660
16gb ram
500gb hdd
128gb ssd
Corsair cX600
MSI H77MA-G43

As you can see, pretty good specs. But I have some problems and I think they have something to do with each other:

-When opening a program the first time it takes a lot of time(3 minutes) to load, but the second third... time it loads within a second.
-When using a program, or dropping a folder from a destionation to another destionation, or playing a game.. it doesn't respond for like 10 seconds then it starts working, after like 10 minutes it again doesn't respond...
-The first time I open a program(every program), every step that I do for the first time in that program will do it very slowly, than if I do the same step again, it will take 1 second.
Example: When I open CS 1.6 for the first time, it takes 2-5 minutes, then when I click on find servers in the game for the first time, it takes 1 minute. When I restart Cs 1.6, it starts in seconds and if I click on find servers, it will do it within 1 second. There's really something wrong with my PC.

(Btw please don't tell me to do virus scans or us Malwarebytes because I have done that all and that didn't fix the problem, I think it has something to do with the HDD or something but the programs from the ssd also start slow the first time..)

Please help me.

The windows is reinstalled but not legally, can that be a problem?

As I said it is a used pc so I'm not the pirate and I already installed the legal version of windows :).
