if not move the mouse system freez

The system works only when the mouse moves! if not moving the mouse or not click on buttons on the keyboard - sound stops, the window partially open, all the processes freez. I've tried most every distribution that will work on AMD…

I've tried most every distribution that will work on AMD (Zephyroth, Kalyway, Leo4all) all with the same results.. I tried different keys at startup. I installed with legacy flag, AMD_1052_test1 Patch and AMD_1052_test2.
I can't find any solutions, will be grateful for the assistance

Field Note #1 @naquaada 2008-06-20

Have you already tried booting in Safe mode (-x) or only with one cpu core (cpus=1)

Field Note #2 @LawlessPPC 2008-06-25

I would suggest stoping any of the power saving options. Such as spin down drives. Make sure nothing ever shutdown or spins down.
