Hi KennedyScott, thanks for the reply however I don't believe it to be a driver issues. Something I have learned since posting this is that a simple log off will bring the keyboard back. If it were a driver issue it wouldn't work by logging off.

  Did you every get this resolved. I seem to have the same problem. On a cold boot touchpad and keyboard do not work. If I restart they both work fine. Went to safe mode and removed both touchpad and keyboard. Did not resolve the issue.
