Hi, Donald, welcome to the forums.

Not trying to sound rude or haughty, but I seriously doubt that you successfully managed to set up a dual boot system and you don't know how to uninstall Windows.

Uninstalling Windows means either formatting the drive it was on or deleting c:\windows\ from DOS. And I'm 99% sure 2000 can't be installed on top of 98 - the way they require the drive be formatted is different.

Can you post back with a little more information about what exactly you did?
