Sometimes it helps to disable ACPI support in the loader menu, and enable 
debugging.
You could also try to reset your system's BIOS settings, if you know what 
you're doing of course. ;)

Sounds like there's something on-board that either isn't supported or
that doesn't get the right driver bound to it.  Or that might possibly
be defective.

What version of FreeBSD are you trying to install?

Can you definitely run other OSes without problems on this same hardware?

Can you try disconnecting as many non-essential peripherals as possible
and see if that allows FreeBSD to boot?

Cheers,

Matthew
