I will get that dmesg together. Discovered that it just doesn't want to work on amd64 platform. I booted with an i386 cdrom and the card was discovered. Bummer thing is that I won't be able to take advantage of my Quad core with 8GB ram. That said, OpenBSD offers everything I want and need in security and features so I'll sacrifice the extra processing power. OpenBSD is so efficient anyways, I won't miss much.
