Constantly moving the mouse causes Windows 98 to freeze

[ThomasEricB]

Describe the bug

Yikes, I just found a nasty bug. Moving your mouse too fast causes Windows 98 to freeze and if you continuously do so will make it crash. See: https://youtu.be/IRprhj5nW-A?t=172 for the exact time of the crash. See entire video to confirm it was running.

Is this with normal core? dynamic core?

x86 dynamic core is known to have issues when page faults are involved with preemptive multitasking in Windows 95/98. dynamic_dynrec may be more stable.

I've sent my DOSBOX-X conf file above (in a gist), you mistakenly missed it! But yeah, @joncampbell123 it was core=dynamic
