Reformat the drive and reinstall Win95b, or use the restore disk if one came
with the computer is about the only thing you can do. The service pack 1
that
you used is only for the retail version of Win95, not WIN95b.

Reinstall your OSR2 overtop of the existing Windows.

See http://home.satx.rr.com/badour/html/upgrade.html for advice on
doing an upgrade install with an OEM version of Windows.

Good luck
