I had that problem before and know that you are pretty well limited once 
the keyboard stops responding for the laptop.

Anyway, I doubt the disks are burned incorrectly and the problem is with 
hardware recognition during installation.

Is it possible for you to get a hold of a USB keyboard and see if you 
could install F7 using the external keyboard? You do not want to use 
this method post install for a laptop, but hopefully it does not effect 
F7 itself and your internal laptop keyboard will work.

Sorry the first suggestion did not work for you. Same symptoms, 
different causes. Maybe there is an option to the installer to disable 
USB legacy. What happens if you disable plug and pray?
