For an absolute beginner it can be quite a learning curve. Reed the FreeBSD Handbook, especially the section about installation: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/install.html > Is it compatible with my computer?

The processor should not be a problem, but other devices like network- or graphics chip tend to vary in brand name computers, so it's impossible to tell.
