I'm having the same problem ... followed the instructions at http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/install.html#WIN95-DAMAGED-BOOT-MANAGER and did "Fixit# fdisk -B -b /boot/boot0 ad0" from the 4.6 CD "live filesystem". Now on reboot I get F3 = DOS F4 = FREEBSD If I choose "F4" I get nothing but a beep. If I choose "F3" it boots into windows. Any suggestions?
