If you use different partitions or drives ,remove the follder windows and program files from the partition windows 98 is on .Don\'t format the partition or delete the entire partition because the necessary files to start windows 2000 are most  probably on that partition .
(boot.ini ,ntldr,ntdetect.com ).
To find those files ,and to delete your windows 98 files ,set up in w2k .To see the files above ,go  to tools ,folder options ,view, hidden files and folders and  set show hidden files and folders .
You can also change the boot ini  , and remove the line \"c:=Microsoft windows 98\" from it (as windows 98 was probably the c: drive , but if you don\'t know how don\'t touch
