Turns on, Windows loads then freezes.
And sometimes everything will load up, but when you click on something, it begins to make a repeatative mouse clicking noise.
Is this a good question?

Before re-installing anything,
you should start in safe mode and try to troubleshoot the problem.
On Dell computers, you simply have to press F8 when the computer is starting.
A menu will offer you to start in safe mode.
Are you up to date in terms of Windows XP security updates?
If no, you should start there.

Did you try with another mouse?
If you don't have another mouse, did you look on your mouse provider's help center if there is such a problem described and solved?
Is your mouse driver updated?
Do you have an anti-virus?
If yes, please run a full scan.
If no, you can install a free anti-virus like Avast, Microsoft Essentials or Avira AntiVir.

Find out what OS you are using and re-image it. If this doesn't work it could be a hardware fault, most likely logic board. (or mother board as you PC users say)

You can try running a your anti-virus program and your malware program. Before running them boot into the safe mode. Have you recently installed new software? If so consider uninstalling it. Another possibility would be to use a restore point from before the problem started. If all of these fail backup what you can and reformat the drive and reinstall XP. Good luck Ralph

If you backup and restore I would virus/malware check my backup before reinstalling. Ralph
