My iMac desktop is making clicking sounds and then it shows this gray folder tab with a ? When starting up my computer. Nothing else will come up. See attach picture. Any ideas what this might be please?

Sorry but there is no attached picture to see but from your description it sounds like the hard drive is failing. Hopefully you have been backing up your data regularly because this doesn't sound good.

What model/year/mac os version is your iMac?
