Each time i start the game up i can enter the lockpick mini game one to two times before it just starts pausing. It will pause for a few seconds before giving me mouse control back with out even entering the lockpick interface.
This happens on a clean install and with the 1.1 patch.
Any ideas?

Enable Vertical Sync.

On or off it makes not difference

Any (wireless) gaming hardware? TDS doesn't like them much. Also see the corresponding threads at the Technical & Troubleshooting Area.

I used to have the exact same problem and fixing VSync made it go away. I think I had to enforce VSync in my video card settings, and turn it off in the game. Try all four combinations.

Yes tried all the combinations. Yes my keyboard and mouse are wireless.
Ended up booting into XP sp3 and the game runs fine there with this hardware. Wish I could get it to work in Win7.

Maybe a stupid question, but did you check to make sure VSync is actually limiting your frame rate? Use FRAPS to make sure it's actually capping it at your monitor's refresh rate; I know you said you tried all the checked/unchecked combinations, but you need to make sure one of them is actually turning VSync on.
