So far so good...

I took apart my mouse, fiddled with the connectors, etc but no go.

So, I bought a new mouse at a used computer store. When I tried to boot
with the new mouse everything went wrong. My system would not recognize my
hard disk. My floppy drive started spitting out disks. The only thing I had
changed was this new mouse. Sure enough, when I took off the mouse things
went back to normal. It turns out that the new mouse was worse than my old
one. It thought its button was always down. 

So, in deparation I tried my old mouse again and it worked! I returned the
bad mouse for a full refund and I am up and running again (for how long who
knows).
