Two things, the first from the FAQ on nVidia's site:

Q: X fails to start, and during bootup time I get
error messages
   like the following:

    nvidia0: Unable to allocate NVIDIA register
resource.

   or:

    nvidia0: Unable to allocate interrupt resource.

A: The system bios has not properly setup your
graphics card; FreeBSD
   can't currently setup PCI devices that the BIOS
leaves unconfigured.
   Please uncheck "PNP-OS" in your system bios.

Do you have the BIOS of the machine set to assign an
IRQ to the graphics card? I don't know if that
matters...

Good luck.  I am using a Geforce 2 MX 400 with TV-Out
under Linux as a dvd-player with ogle.  I use Linux
because FreeBSD doesn't do 5.1 sound and the ALSA
project for Linux does do.  Oh well...
