According to MSD, it's a PS/2 Style mouse (Toshiba
BallPoint Mouse) and uses IRQ 12. I notice TASKMGR.INI
contains:
  [mouse]
  MousePort=AUTO
  MouseIRQ=AUTO

so I suspect it is looking for a serial port mouse.
I tried changing the irq in the .ini file to 12,
but didn't know what to do with the MousePort line.

MSD says my mouse driver is by M$.

Does a system reboot as soon as the int 33 mouse reset
function is invoked.
