The change to "Standard PC" from ACPI worked wonders for me. Thanks! All my hardware was trying to jump on IRQ11. I tried the remove devices and reinstall 1 at a time to no avail. It worked great until the second I installed my network card and rebooted then they all jumped onto 11 and the fun resumed. This ACPI to Standard PC fix works wonders.
