Well, the very easiest way you can find here:
http://gag.sourceforge.net/download.html

Test it from Floppy/CD, configure it and if you like it, select 
InstallOnHarddisk.

Otherwise you can use WinXp loader if you dump the first 512 byte of your 
FreeBSD slice and copy it to a locaten where the NT loader can read it and 
add the appropriate menu.

You can also install the FreeBSD bootloader with sysinstall on a existing 
multi-os disk.
