My case I have installed a MBR manager and chose an option (Not touch boot 
record) when you install FreeBSD.
Oh, b4 you install FreeBSD, be aware of types of hardware installed in your 
machine by checking my Computer -> device manager -> then get IRQ and 
hardware details. It would be handy.

Cheers,
