So after I successfully recovered my lost files after mistakenly formatting my whole OS, some programs started acting funny.. Like Firefox would not respond every once in a while and the laptop can freeze up for several seconds before it starts functioning again. Do these problems have to do with hardware or the OS itself? :/

File Recovery isn't a 100% safe thing. You should cleanly reinstall your OS and programs and be happy that most of your data isn't lost.

Yeah I did that, I made a clean install without backing up my data, but I managed to get back some important documents through a program. Anyhow I got it fixed through the chkdisk!
