Please guys I need help helphelp :(

Hello to all, i am new to this forum and if this problem didnt persist i wouldn't be here at all i think xD
Now for the problem.
The problem is that 3 days ago something happened with my pc.
When iit started up, for example i went to skype chatted a bit then i folded it down and when i folded it up the screen FROZE in a bout 10 minutes. and nothing could help exept of restarting my pc. I had this problem everytime i restarted my pc. THen i hitted cTRL+ALT+DEL, Performance and i didn't like what i saw.
Even with my games running CPU USAGE USED TO BE 10% max.
And now with nothing esle runing but the task manager itsleft the cpu USAGE WAS 80% and the minimum was 50% no way down. So i decided to reinstall my windows. I reinstalled it installed all possible drives . Video,Sound,etc.
That day everything was cool. But at the next morning hitted the pc start button. Guess what i saw. You know at the first thing you see in startup Black background and The ram then the motherboard.
Then The windows loading.
But the problem is that In the black background There are some Symbols that i have never seen before. they are all over the monitor. Then when the computers starts at last windows wellcome message appears and the worst There are SOME YELLOW LINES ALL OVER THE MONITOR. and they are not stable they change colors and they become less or more as i move my mouse cursor around. Well i had to reinstall my windows again. I reinstalled it but the problem got the same this lines some mysterious Signs, Symbols and SMILEYS IN BOOT UP I think its wierid though. SO i installed all drives exept the video drive. I HAVE GEFORCE 8500gt. I went to nvidia.com Downloaded newest WHQL drive and in the middle of installation my PC just Gos black and shuts down. Please people help me and tell me whats the problem .
I have reinstalled windows several times but it didn't help it.
Sorry for mistakes but im nervous : D
Thanks in Advance. HELP ME ASAP! :(
The problem is the same The symbols and lines in the screen.

Re: Please guys I need help helphelp :(

A decent game should use alot more than %10 CPU usage ^^

Sounds to me like a power issue, or the chip in the graphics card is semi-burnt out.
