You can perform a repair (upgrade) installation of Windows 95. Simply boot off the Windows 95 disc (if supported, otherwise use a boot diskette). Start Windows Setup and it will automatically detect the existing installtion of Windows 95. This doesn't erase everything it will simply recopy Windows 95 over itself.
