Fastback: Mouse Click on Pause Button Doesn't Work (102409)

This article was previously published under Q102409 SYMPTOMS
When you run Fifth Generation Systems Fastback or Fastback Plus with
Windows NT, nothing happens when you click the Pause button.
CAUSE
While the virtual DOS machine (VDM) is busy writing to or reading
tracks from a floppy disk, mouse interrupts are blocked. This problem
occurs because 16-bit interrupt handlers are run in the same thread as
the floppy emulation code. Since mouse events are not queued, the
button clicks and the position movement are not received during the
floppy read/write.
