Any monitor will pretty much do.

Not sure about UDMA

Is it IDE? If so then yes.

The video card is unimportant until you decide to run Xwindows. Go to
www.xfree86.org to find out if you card is supported under X.

SB cards are the best supported. Your card will certainly not prevent you
from using FreeBSD. It may take some tinkering to get the sound card to
work.

Thank you,       | Try some of this. It will show you where you're at.
