Okay, now, don't take this as an insult, but... some laptops (my compaq, for example) has a little handy button that allows me to enable/disable the touchpad, are you sure that's not it? Just a thought.

Sometimes, when coming back from sleep, my laptop's touchpad just simply doesn't work, usually a restart, or closing the lid (sleep) and opening it again (wake up) does it. Even though you did restart, I'd power the machine off and turn it on again after a few minutes, and see what happens.

Oh right right of course, internal mouse. It finally clicked XD sorry about that. Though if you took the laptop apart, you could try another PC... it would be messy

Maybe the mouse somehow did get disabled through some silly setting, removing the power completely and restarting like that may return the settings to default hopefully.

you should check the batteries in the mouse, if your mouse needs batteries.. this has happened to a few of my mates over the years..
