Strange behavior after CD install (resolved)

Just did fresh base CD 0.7 install on laptop Acer 5014 AMD Athlon 64 3200+. Observing several strange things:

1. After reloading, cannot login as a root since keyboard is dead. Hitting
combination "Windows key"+"Caps Lock" return keyboard to life.

2. Sometimes, just entering "cd etc" makes keyboard dead again, same effect from "ping www.yahoo.com"

3. In any cases, unable to reload computer with "Ctrl+Alt+Del"

Can it be specific AMD Athlon 64 problem?
