I have exactly the same problem here on a ASUS A7V333 Motherboard and
an Adaptec 3960D SCSI Controller.

The problem seems to be in the acpi interrupt routing, I've updated
the mainboard Bios to the last available version in the meantime
(1018.004 Beta) with no luck. Disabling acpi completly helps booting
the machine again..
