I had the same problem when I upgraded my SE to 2.5M.  I was booting up
with Macsbug present.  And everytime I would try to run MacWrite it
would freeze the mouse.  After taking Macsbug out of the System Folder
MacWrite had a much better time.  So it might be one of your INIT's
causing the problem.  Try booting up without them and see what happens,
then replacing them one at a time to find the culprit.

Hope this helps.
