I can relate to that, most of the (FBSD) live disks I had wouldn't boot, that is why I decided to go the real thing and install it myself from scratch. It seems the problem is more in the live disks and their customer friendly scripts that just don't work for everybody than in FBSD itself.

That is because FBSD is about choice (copyright a zillion people ). You can install a gui, you don't have to.

Do:
- pkg_add -r kde3 or kde4 (look it up, I might be mistaking about the 3 and 4).
- configure xorg.conf for your hardware.
- startx
- if works add it to xinit.rc for automatic startup.
