A. First, make sure you backup everything you need just in case. The following procedure
should remove Windows 2000 from your hard drive:
1. Boot to Windows 98 with a Windows 98 startup diskette.
2. Type sys c: in MS-DOS prompt.
3. Remove boot.ini, bootsect.dos, ntldr, ntdetect.com and ntbootdd.sys (if exists)
from c:\
4. Delete pagefile.sys (usually on C:)
5. Format Windows 2000 partition
Make sure you copy all data files you need to a different partition.
