That's an interesting workaround, I'll have to remember that. Yes, it is the USB. Linux has the same problem and the same fix - disable the USB driver in the kernel. The problem is that in the 1600, the motherboard chipset has basically half a USB setup. It has the port chip but no USB buss. You can look all over the motherboard and you will not find a take-off or header for a USB connector. Yet, load any os that autodetects USB, like Win XP, and it will find the USB chip. I'd be quite happy to install without a mouse, but I would definitely want the psm port available once I had recompiled the kernel without the USB drivers.
