      I have a Intel Pro/1000 MT card that i see at POST however, I guess the drivers are not installed?  any suggestions?

      BGE0 = on board NIC (working)
      em0/1 = Intel NIC  (not working)

      bge0@pci0:2:0:0:        class=0x020000 card=0x01ad1028 chip=0x167714e4 rev=0x01 hdr=0x00
          class      = network
          subclass  = ethernet
      em0@pci0:4:0:0: class=0x020000 card=0x10798086 chip=0x10798086 rev=0x03 hdr=0x00
          class      = network
          subclass  = ethernet
      em1@pci0:4:0:1: class=0x020000 card=0x10798086 chip=0x10798086 rev=0x03 hdr=0x00
          class      = network
          subclass  = ethernet

        The correct driver, em(4) is clearly attaching to the hardware as shown in your output.
        What makes you think the card is not working?

            Please define 'not able to assign'. You mean at the CLI? Or inthe webgui you click the '+' sign to add a new interface and it's not there (or no + sign at all)?

            Occasionally a NIC/driver will not initialise correctly. Check the boot log for errors:

             cat /var/log/dmesg.boot | grep em0
            

            or something similar. You may see something like:

            device_attach: em0 attach returned 6
            

            As in this thread: http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,36616.0.html
