It seems like the timer interrupt is simply not running.  Confirm you 
have your timer peripheral connected to IRQ 0 (or have adjusted the 
setup code appropriately if that's not the case).

If you can, connect the timer interrupt signal to an IO on the board, 
and watch it with a scope or logic analyser (or use chipscope pro)

No surprises there.  Everything needs to work in sequence, otherwise 
things break downstream.  Fix the errors in order of occurrence :)
