Check the FAQ's, manuals, etc. You may also want to look at www.mostgraveconcern.com/freebsd. FreeBSD is not (in my opinion) the most easiest OS to learn, by reading and subscribing to mailing lists (like this one) you will learn more about your computer and operating systems in general than anything micro$oft could teach you. You're starting in the right place. Check the above web sites and if you still have problems, holler back.
