While installing it gets all the way to the country selection screen then neither the keyboard nor the mouse responds.

Heh, mouse doesnt do anything in sysinstall ....
Looks like you are using usb keyboard and usb legacy support is enabled from BIOS.
 
im not sure how to enable legacy.
i ws in the BIOS and couldnt find any option to enable this.
i have a Dell Dimension E310
 
Legacy USB is not important here. If USB keyboard doesn't work you will need to pick another FreeBSD version(for example latest CURRENT snapshot) or pick PS keyboard.
Or try to detach/attach keyboard all the time.
