Windows 98 SE Mouse Buttons Randomly Stop Working #3937

What happened?

After a few clicks the mouse buttons stop working in the VM essentially rendering it completely if not mostly unusable. I need to reset and change the mouse type which often causes it to need to scan the disk or boot in safe mode.
