I've read somewhere that including unnecessary header and library files in gaming code would slow down your game speed. I often inculde a bunch of OpenGL and DirectX to make shure my code functions are supported and I don't get anny unnecessary bugs. And later on I remove the ones I didn't use. -Is this method ok, because I find it hard to determine wich ones I used and wich not? -And does it slow down your gaming code(and eventually your game itself)?And what if you use just a few lines of a library?

The files that go into the compilation process do not necessarily determine the size of the resulting executable. It is the actual compiled code - code in static libraries and source files (or inline functions defined in headers) - that yields the resulting executable.
