The computer stops working and emits a loud sound when you press the mouse button?
The issue with my computer involves frequent freezing and a loud clicking sound when I click the mouse. I can't use Ctrl/Alt/Delete; instead, I have to restart or press the power button for about seven seconds before it restarts. This happens intermittently, lasting from five minutes to several hours. There are no errors—just freezing, and the mouse cursor doesn’t move. Additionally, after a restart, my monitors sometimes fail to start up. I’ve had to restart them multiple times to connect (HDMI not found). I’ve connected the monitor to the GPU, removed it, and then reinserted it into the MB HDMI slot, which worked initially but stopped functioning the next morning.
I’m currently not using the GPU. I also uninstalled the GPU drivers and performed a clean install, but it didn’t resolve the problem. I’m unsure what’s causing it. I haven’t disassembled or cleaned the device, nor have I performed a full reset. I’m trying to fix this before dismantling everything. Any suggestions? Are others experiencing similar issues? It’s really frustrating—it feels like a time bomb every time I power on my PC because I’m unsure what will happen next.

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!
You forgot to mention the make and model of your PSU and it's age. BIOS version for your motherboard? Can you elaborate on what your ram load out is(as in it's make and model)? How are you cooling the processor? Might want to see if using another keyboard aleviates the issue.
Speaking of keyboards, please include the make and model of your peripherals.
