You can go to bootdisk.org or freedos.org and download an iso image to make
a bootable CD. I think you need to first get your system actually booting
a CD of any OS, then move on to installing FreeBSD.
It may be your BIOS isn't booting the CD or you simply have a CD with a bad
boot image. So
Sounds like your motherboard went bad. You can try flashing the BIOS with
a floppy to see if that brings it back.
