I've noted this question in the nvidia-driver port FAQ:
<faq>
Q: X fails to start, and during bootup time I get error messages
like the following:
nvidia0: Unable to allocate NVIDIA register resource.
or:
nvidia0: Unable to allocate interrupt resource.
A: The system bios has not properly setup your graphics card; FreeBSD
can't currently setup PCI devices that the BIOS leaves unconfigured.
Please uncheck "PNP-OS" in your system bios.
</faq>
Try it.
