New Update: In my case the freezes were caused by a Logitech S510
KB/Mouse USB combo. Once I removed the receiver and went to a standard
wired mouse and PS2 KB the pointer freezes are 100% cured.

The receiver has a PS2 option plug on a -Y- cable, but it also causes
the freeze issue.

So if your using this or another wireless KB or Mouse, you might try to
use a wired unit(s) to check if this cures the freeze issue.

For me, I'll bite the bullet for now an use a wired solution, To bad as the Logitech S510 KB is very nice (Mouse, not so much lol), so I used my old USB MX500 and left the combo mouse turned off.
Note: even with the USB MX500 unplugged, using the crappy mouse that came with the S510 combo the freeze still occurred.

Now using the USB MX500 and a old PS2 wired KB, the pointer freeze is no
longer a issue for me.
