[SOLVED] Mouse and Keyboard not working.

EDIT:
I think I got it working.
Now the keyboard and mouse work but the mouse is stuck to the top of the screen and moves very fast.

If you haven't already read it, make sure you check out the new xorg paradigm by reading the xorg input hotplugging (http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xorg_input_hotplugging) wiki article.

I had a similar issue when setting up Arch, for me Xorg was to blame.

Make sure you don't boot into a gui, maybe choose the second setting in the Arch Grub screen and using your root account and nano, edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and add this line under the "ServerLayout" option.

Option "AllowEmptyInput" "false"

This did the trick for me, hope it works for you.

I forgot to say that I fixed the problem before any of you replied.
(I was using the wrong driver for the mouse.)
