FreeBSD makes only changes to the hard disk. If I understand you 
correctly then you replaced the old hard disk with a new one and 
installed Windows on the new hard disk; the old one isn't connected 
anymore. In this case I suppose it is definitively not a FreeBSD fault.

By the way you can look up Windows errors and their reasons and 
solutions at msdn.microsoft.com. Just type the exact error message into 
the search field.

It might be coincidence that a hardware error occured first when you 
installed FreeBSD. FreeBSD doesn't do ugly tricks that could destroy 
your hardware or make other operating systems and even fresh 
installations unbootable forever.
