[cite] naquaada:[/cite]Have you tested the keyboard mouse? Go in System Preferences -> Universal Access -> Mouse and switch on the keyboard mouse. Now you should be able to control the pointer with the numpad keys.
Have you a function 'USB Legacy support' enabled in BIOS? Some computers have problems with mouse and/or keyboard if it's enabled.

I do have legacy support enabled in the bios. Surely if it was that then cpus=1 shouldn't make a difference but it does. With this kernel flag my system is solid as a rock, unfortunately losing 25 points off my xbench score in the process 
@ Rogue, i am inclined to agree it must be a timing issue - seems everyone who has experienced this problem are all running x2 processors.
