Well yeah, thats windows. FreeBSD doesn't seam to want to know the hardware *that well*. So I thought it would be ok.

I would highly advise at least recompiling the kernel,

I thought about that but what would it do? The kernel is compile to the options epcified in it correct? How would that help? The AMD cpu's are identified as i686 just like the p3's. I looked for AMD flags and couldn't find any.

if not a full re-install of FreeBSD. May I suggest trying FreeBSD
5.0-RELEASE as there is a big improvement in SMP

Yeah I am aware of the BSDi based SMP improvements. I was kinda holding out until the stable branch appeared. I know 5.0 is pretty stable. I installed it at home but haven't played with it much once I found out updating and other things I do were pretty much the same. What about CVSUP though? How do you update the code until the stable branch comes out? What if there is a security issue. Like I said, I haven't messed with 5.0 very much at all. I did try to see how CVSUP worked and it didn't for me. My supfile was probably wrong though.
