Windows 10: Having problems with my mouse and my keyboard.

So my laptop does this annoying thing where if I'm pressing a button on my keyboard, my mouse won't allow me to click anything. I can move it around on the screen, but it won't click. This is very frustrating while playing games. I thought it might just be a problem with my touch pad but I recently got a USB Wireless mouse because I thought it was fix this problem but it didn't. What can I do to fix it?
