am i still infected

my computer got infected by a rat on march 23rd and wihh the help of my cousin i got a usb drive to reinstall windows and when i did i thought it was gone but i checked wirh some antiviruses and they found 10 total trojans 3 rats 7 some kinda trojans all inside of windonws,old and to be sure i reinstalled again but since then i notice my compurer sometimes freezes for 10seconds on boot sometimes longer and it puts tpm-wmi errors (error code 1040) inside my event viewer this has happened across windows reinstalls so im a little worried the windows reinstall druve i made is infected because i made it on my computer while it was infected but im also second guessing as the rat was from a fake minecraft mod i got off discord id guess the hacker used a tool to do it but im still worried because idk why my tpm is apparently having errors (note when it freezes my cursor still moves)
