I had this problem whenever I tried to edit anything with Oasis-Ed. I cured it
by renaming mousedrv.on to mousedrv.off. (A better cure is to use another editor
entirely). The problem occured only when editing text though, so you've probably
got a similar, but unrelated, problem and I've been of no help at all :-)

Good luck, Gaz.
