Check if you have all the correct drivers installed. You said that the PC had recently been formated so it could be as simple as incorrect video or mouse (trackpoint, touchpad) drivers.\nYou should check the manufacturer's support site to get the latest version of drivers. If you don't know the address just post your make and model and we'll try to find it.\nHope this helps!

Clicking noise is the first sign of corrupted sectors on the hdd, however I recommend you to update your drivers. Also you can reformat and therefore get report about its corrupted sectors. If your pc is able to recognize this hdd it should appear here: start>>settings>>control panel>>administrative tools>>computer management>>storage>>disk management. If it is there I strongly recommend you to reformat it.

This can often happen when you have the active desktop turned on.  Right-click the desktop and turn it off.

It sounds like sticky keys is on.  Go to the control panel, under accessability and uncheck the sticky keys option.\n-Duo

If your mouse is clean and you don't have a mouse problem, you might have a sofrware called VNC installed on ur computer. what VNC does is let's others to get on your desktop, when someone gets on your desktop your curson stucks on the screen.  you might have this installed by someone on your computer to check you out.

Yes it sounds like a hardware problem, if not then it could be some sort of virus or bug.  I would do a virus check and a hardware check.  Like run a diagnostic test on your computer to make sure all the hardware is running properly.

Is it by any chance a laptop? If it is, then it is perfectly normal. Many laptops have problems with the onboard mouse due to the tight space around it on the inside of the case. \n\nTry unpluggin the mouse and plugging it back in. You may have to purchase another one.

Does it return to normal on it's own or when you touch the mouse or keyboard? It could be your power settings....right click on your desktop and go to properties, screen saver, then down where it says Monitor Power click power and make sure they all say never then click apply. Hope this helps

I believe the only parts of a pc which produce noise are the Power Supply fan and/or the hard drive.\nIf it's the fan, then it sounds like you need a new Power Supply (thankfully these aren't expensive) - however, if it's the hard drive that's making noise, it's a good sign that it's on it's way out - in which case, back up your data and replace it!

computer freezes or the mouse just doesn't move the pointer?\n\nIf you have a ball type mouse you can take out the ball and clean the wheels it rolls on.

It sounds like you're receiving interference.  Even with wired devices, this can happen.  But it's much more prone to occur with wireless.\n\nDo you have a wireless network that runs on the same frequency? Wireless internet? Or even possibly someone near you also with a wireless mouse.

gordo my advice to you here is uninstall the mouse and then reinstall it

Its not the fan on your hard drive (it doesnt actually have one!).  It is possibly a dirty fan, and you may want to open the case up and clean the fans.  Just use a paintbrush (the big house painting kind) and you can easily wipe of all o the dust on the fans and heatsinks in the computer.  If it sounds like a loud BUZZing noise, then it is likely the bearings on the fan went out and it will need to be replaced.  If it has always been this loud, consider buying a more expensive "quiet" fan to replace it.

Uh, oh.\n\nClicking sounds = very bad.\n\nThat means your hard disk actuator is fried.  You need to buy a new hard drive, and chances are very good you will not be able to save the data off the old one.\n\nI've heard that if you put a clicking hard drive in the freezer overnight it will work for 10-15 minutes - long enough to copy a few key files off, but I've never tried it myself.

It could also be a system problem in that there are too many processes running at once and your mouse response is competing with other system processes.  Try and reduce the number of processes that are running in the background and see if that makes a difference.  Unless there is junk build up on the tracking ball then I doubt that the physical component of the mouse is the problem.
