If your C: drive is formatted to FAT32 you can just reformat it to
remove win2000, but if you used NTFS then you will have to use fdisk
to
delete all current partitions on C: and then create FAT32 partitions.
See this MS KB article for full instructions
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=255867

Either way once you are ready to begin win98 setup you can use a
bootdiskette, or set 1st bootable device to CD in BIOS setup, providing
your win98 CD is bootable. To enter BIOS setup press the DEL key - could
also be F1, look for clues as your PC starts.
Need a boot diskette ? goto www.bootdisk.com
