Is that an NVidia card? You could try downloading the latest driver for your card from the NVIDIA page.
http://www.nvidia.com/object/freebsd_1.0-9746.html

Of course, the real way to handle it is to write a strong letter to Nvidia asking them to release specs of the card, instead of hiding all the details in a closed source binary

Hi Scorpions4ever,

Tks for your advice and URL.

Yes, nVidia chipset. I have problem running FreeBSD-6.2-1md64 on ASUS motherboard and ASUS graphic card as well.

ASUS mobo M2N-E
onboard NIC can't be detected

ASUS graphic card
7300GS PCI-E 16 256MB

I found that website before but I can't find the driver for FreeBSD amd64. The driver there is for x86. Can it work on 86_64?
