I've got FreeBSD 4.0 on my home box: ASUS K7V, Athlon 650MHz. No problems.

I read that you need to disable the BIOS virus protection for FreeBSD to
install properly.

 TV is the worst  of both  worlds.  It's not  as
 good at words  as radio is because the pictures
 are a distraction  which demand  attention, and
 it's not as good as cinema because the pictures
 are not nearly as good.
