I have solved the problem with my puke-yellow color shift. It seems that if
you load the PS/2 mouse driver (!) ANYWHERE (LOADHI or no) it relocates the
extended BIOS area (overriding the QEMM switch NX), causing the color shift.

If you need the mouse for DOS applications, use the mouse.sys that came with
Windows 3.0, and use the device= line in your CONFIG.SYS. I have used LOADHI
with it.
