I was having the same problem.  I have tried many things that were 
suggested without success.  I have a ASUS A7N8X-E mother board and 
GeForce FX5200 video card.  The problem was an incompatibility with USB 
2.0.  I was finally able to install the drivers by disabling USB 2.0 in 
the kernel per comments by youn_sa in the thread on the Nvidia Linux 
Forum, see the link below.
