 one guess is that usb3 is required and not well supported in netbsd 7.
 that might explain why both the boot device and keyboard do nothing
 as they're not suppored here.
 
 netbsd-current has a much better chance of working here.  can you try
 an image from eg:
 
    http://nyftp.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD-daily/HEAD/201612140120Z/images/NetB=
 SD-7.99.47-amd64-install.img.gz
 
 if this works less poorly, usb3 may be the problem (but really it
 needs boot logs to see what happened.)
