Jim, Thanks for your reply, but my issue was resolved the other day and I did not update this thread with the "solution". I added acpi=off to my boot up and it "fixed" everything. I'm able to use USB devices and all networking. My logs told me to add acpi=off and file a bug report, so that's what I'll do. Sorry for not updating the thread, but thanks for your help.
