This still sounds a bit vague, but I think you're saying "Will FreeBSD run on Compaq?". If so, the answer is a qualified "yes".

If they're doing particularly badly on your machine, you might have problems which affect operating systems, such as FreeBSD, as well. It's probably worth your while to mention what machine you have, and what the problems with Microsoft are.
