Installing Free BSD 5.21

I'm somewhat skeptical re: the advice because the CD Rom has booted &
read the information contained on the CD up to the point of the hang
(i.e. "time counters tick every 10.000 msecs). I don't perceive the
failure to lie with the CD Rom but rather somewhere in the BIOS because
the next step in the loading process has been reported to me as looking
to the BIOS. Hence I reset the BIOS to defaults. I did however burn
a new CD in the chance that for some reason the CD had become
corrupted. That yielded the same result.
So, my question still stands (unfortunately). Why is the install
hanging at "time counters tick every 10.000 msecs"|?
Thanks, :o)
