Have you considered a list in modal dialog? 

This would allow a more spacious display for the list and the prompt, prohibit 
proceeding without the necessary selection, make that necessity clear in its 
prompt and initially-disabled confirmation button, and offer the option of 
being entirely keyboard-navigable.


But I'm also curious:

What information does the user need to consider to make that choice, and what 
would their decision tree look like?

And are some choices better than others?  Are there any that would be a "wrong" 
choice?  Any that would be a "best" choice?  What are the implications to the 
system when a suboptimal choice is made?
