I had that problem last year with my workstation which is a Dell Optitlex 320.
I succeeded a Debian installation with the use of a usb key for the 
installation.

In the end, the only working solution was using Lilo. Grub is not functionnal 
at all (I didn't try Grub2).

In order to boot correctly I use those options : 
   nolapic noapic acpi=off irqpoll
