You don't give much information ( which FreeBSD, are you using X 
and a window manager ?), so I have to guess. 
If you are using X and the problem is that you only see part of your
desk top on the screen, but you can scroll with mouse to other parts
of the desk top, then your 'virtual screen' is bigger than your
actual screen. You can fix this by modifying your xfree86.conf or 
xorg.conf, depending on which FreeBSD you use.

HTH,
