If you reformat over a drive that had Win95, then it is gone. The best bet is to create a Win95 boot diskette with your CD-ROM drivers on it. Boot the diskette and type: sys c:
Create a folder like Win95 on the C: drive and copy the win95 files from the CD and run the setup program.
You should also include a copy of the win95 himem.sys file.
create config.sys on c: with device=himem.sys and reboot the pc. It should come up to a c:\ prompt. Change into the win95 folder you created and run the setup.exe program to reload win95.
