Thanks for your reply. Maybe one of you can help me. I reinstalled FreeBSD few times and couldn't get it to work. You see, every time i try the XFree86Setup. I wanna try the second time, it fails :( Anyway, I have this Card: Cardexpert TM64 Nvidia Riva TNT2 4xAGP 32MB VGA And I think my other Problem is the Monitor, It's a ViewSonic PF970. Hope one of you guys can help me and tell me which settings should I choose. Now I feel stupid 'cause I sold my old PC. I had an old 8MB card on it. I used to SuperProbe and use the XF86Config script.
