Hi,
i had the same Problem.I have 3 USB Devices.
1 Joypad,1 Modem,1 CD-Recorder;When i switched off the CD-Recoder it will start.You can check it by disabling USB Support in Bios.

if you have ISA devices, take them out, ISA sucks anyways, make sure PNP OS installed is OFF in the BIOS. Then try again. I had to remove my ISA modem to get it working, but I never use the modem anyways.

go into your bios and choose "fail-safe defaults" and try setup again that should work, give it some time and your keyboard lights will blink then setup will continue
