 That web page said to enter this command (which I do not have a good
 understanding of but did anyway)
 
  # sysctl -w kern.timecounter.method=1
 which I did, but apparently my 5.0 doesn't like that because it
 promptly spit back:
 sysctl: unknown oid 'kern.timecounter.method'
I looked at that FAQ page, and right underneath where it lists that
command it says the following:
Note: The -w option of sysctl(8) is deprecated and silently ignored in
FreeBSD 4.4-RELEASE and all newer versions. You can safely ommit it when
setting options with sysctl as shown above.
I'd give it a try with out the '-w' flag.  Although I don't know if it'll fix
your issues.  Just maybe a step in the right direction.


It still generates the exact same error message

Does 5.0 *have* that sysctl?
sysctl kern.timecounter.method will tell you.

The handbook is still primarily oriented toward 4.x, because 5.x isn't
officially ready for production use yet.
