Yes. A folder is a folder. The default for Win2k is winnt. Remove this and you have your programs and files as they were. Also delete the Documents and Settings folder where all user info is kept. This erases My Documents also which is different from 98 as in 98 it is directly on the root drive. Check the root drive also as there a few hidden system files belonging to Win2k.
