Nevermind, I figured it out on my own, for the sound I installed the snd_ich module su cd /sys/modules/sound/driver/ich/ make make install make load edit /boot/defaults/loader.conf and change the line that says snd_ich_load="NO" to snd_ich_load="YES" So the sound drivers are loaded every time you reboot. And for the LAN I installed the nve module: su cd /sys/modules/nve/ make make install make load edit /boot/defaults/loader.conf and change the line that says if_nve_load="NO" to if_nve_load="YES" So the LAN drivers are loaded every time you reboot. In the shell, then type: sysinstall Go to Configure -> Networking -> and check Gateway and NFS Client, then check Interfaces -> nve0, and when it asks if you want it to configure DHCP and some other stuff, select yes. This is for if you connect to the internet with a router which you connect to your LAN card or onboard LAN with an ethernet cable. I hope this information helps out people having the same problem.
