I'm confused, is there a solution to the usb/bios issues on my computer or is it simply impossible to install OSX on my computer?

There is a way , it works fine with slices USB 2.0 patch in leopard, but a new patch has been made for SnowLeopard 10.6.4 by the author of iBoot Tonymacs.

I'm afraid I don't follow. I have already tried installing Snow Leopard using the latest version of iBoot.

His utility is separate from iBoot, although it is included only when you boot from the iBoot CD your USB 2.0 should work when you boot your computer with the iBoot CD, if you find the MKEXT Unpacker Utility you can go into the "Preboot.dmg" image on that CD and extract the USB kext file from there and use "Kext Utility" to install it. Then you should have working USB 2.0.

But when I boot from the iBoot CD the built-in trackpad, built-in keyboard, and all the USB ports stop working. I can't even use USB 1.1. I can't install OSX or do anything on the boot cd because I have no method of input once I reach the installation screen.

Well maby you need to try a different method yes? you can try Empire EFI or Hazards Distro SnowOSXUniversal 3.6 ect.

Already tried them and several other methods including SnowOSX, iATKOS S3, etc. Same issue occurs in Empire EFI and Hazard. The other methods usually just crash and reboot.
