If you have any FreeBSD distribution in CD-ROM you can restore your 
boot manager simply by going to the \tools directory on ther first CD 
and running BOOTINST.EXE
I'm not sure, but I believe you should boot in MS-DOS native, since 
maybe Win95 doesn't like the MBR be changed, but again I'm not really 
sure about this.
If you don't have any CD-ROM distribution you surely can find 
Easyboot in any FreeBSD ftp site, but I don't know exactly in which 
directory.

Good luck

Jesus
