Try Holding down either CTRL or ALT

ALT Should allow you to boot from the Floppy

CTRL Should by-pass the AUTO Folder Programs, then, the ACCessories.
You should then be able to get the GEM Desktop up and running, and still have the HardDisk Driver startup so you can access your Drive C:

If you manage this, then rename all you ACCs to ACX so they dont startup.

Because you have seen the mouse, its more likely that its an ACC that is the problem than a Auto Folder Program, but not definite, so rename the ACCs in C: to ACX first, and try a proper Re-Boot then.

If that still does not work, then rename the PRG files in C:AUTO to PRX and Rename them back to PRG one by one.

Its often a simple task to find the culprit, but an awkward and boring one, but sometimes it can be a nasty case where eahc one on their own will run perfectly fine, but a mix of 2 will be the problem.
Dont worry about that though, iyts only me being a tit as usual!
