Hmmm....is it hardware or software?
Let's check hardware...(I'm betting on something funky on the hardware end)
Do you have (or can you borrow) an extra USB keyboard and mouse that you can 
plug into the notebook and use for a while.  Does this make the problem go 
away?  If the problem goes away, it sounds like a hardware problem to me.
