First, Only do this from a SHUTDOWN to DOS or boot to command prompt.
If I remember correctly the registry backups are also in the windows
directory along with the original registry files.

If I'm not mistaken, everytime you boot windows a new backup is made.
in Win95 only one(1) backup is created.  I heard that in Win98 five(5)
sequential backups are made.  This means that after five(5) boots to
windows after the MaxMTU settings have been set you will no longer
have a backup without unless you had specifically made one yourself.

If you Exported your registry for backup purposes you simply went thru
one of the longest operations known to man.  An export won't help you
in this case however.  REASON: MaxMTU settings are specified in the
registry by default.  Import only Overwrites existing settings with
the ones imported.  Since there was no setting for MaxMTU to be Exported
Then there won't be one to import.


    cd C:\windows
    attrib -r -h -s system.dat
    attrib -r -h -s user.dat

    copy system.da0 system.dat
    copy user.da0 user.dat

    attrib +r +h +s system.dat
    attrib +r +h +s user.dat
