The adaptec 3200s is supported out of the box in FreeBSD with the asr driver (at least on i386). You should not need a separate driver. Is the adaptec at the latest firmware and is your system bios at the latest version? I had a problem with an adaptec 2200s (aac driver) with my tuan opteron board that was fixed with a system BIOS upgrade.
