I'm interested to start using freeBSD in my computer but I have question regarding my system.

My system runs with :

cyrix II 333Mhz
PCI conexant SoftK56 Data, Fax,RTAM PCI modem
ATAPI CDRom
and I'm using Win98

-I'm confuse about the hardware compability in freeBSD, do my current hardwares would work after I've installed freeBSD? 
This is because using windows doesn't require me to install most of the devices driver.
-What platform should I use i386 or Alpha?

I wish you can help me on the problems...I really wants to use the freeBSD.
TQ, I'm looking forward for the answer...(I'm not an expert with computer and this is my first time to try learning something interesting like the freeBSD..)
