So how can i do now!

According to your description, you want to boot into one
out of three systems (FreeBSD, a Linux, a "Windows"). In
this case, you should be able to run the Linux distribution
you have from a live file system CD or DVD and restore its
boot manager, LILO or GRUB. This boot manager should then
deal with the OS selection for boot.

Of course, you can also "restart" the FreeBSD installation
and choose its boot manager to be installed. I think you
should be able to do this through the running FreeBSD
system, maybe using the sysinstall program. The FreeBSD
boot manager would then show the operating systems' names
in its choice list.

As I am not a "multi-booter", I'm not fully sure if this
will work as intended. Usually I do just install FreeBSD's
loader as there is nothing else to load. :-)


I would suggest you use a Live CD (Partition Magic) and set the Windows partition active. You will then boot into Windows and I would then recommend that you install the EasyBCD bootloader and ad your BSD installation to it.
