If you study the page about the main board MA78GM-S2H

http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Products/Motherboard/Products_Spec.aspx?ProductID=2926

please notice Remark part and Operating System part .

Some main boards may contain circuitry that it is NOT supported by FreeBSD .
In other words , it may not be possible to install Unix type operating
systems produced for ONLY
Windows unless operating system sources are re-designed for unsupported (
special ) chip(s) .

Thank you very much .
