Doing a FreeBSD buildworld is a very good way to test your system :-)

You'll find a much more detailled description of the possible problems and
solutions in the SIG 11 FAQ, which you can find here:
http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/

Since the individual components of your system interact with each other in
so many ways, if the problem is actually a faulty component, usually the
best approach is to swap components one at a time from another (working)
system. But it could be that you have BIOS settings wrong for CPU clock or
RAM timing etc.
