Try installing Openbsd 3.6 (either the 32-bit 386 version or the 64-bit amd version) from 
http://www.openbsd.org.
If neither works, then the odds go up that you have a hardware problem.
If one or the other version of openbsd works, then you could have a hardware or software 
problem (or both). If both  openbsd versions work, then you probably have a software 
problem with the Freebsd you are loading.
