I installed win2k on my C-drive, on the same drive i have my win98 (FAT32). During the installation in formatted the disk to NTFS. Then I re-booted and now no HD's are found. Can anybody help?

Hmmm... Could be that your hard disk controller is unsupported in W2K or has been incorrectly identified during installation. This occured for me when I was loading W2K from a CDROM which was supported in Win '98 but unsupported in W2K.
Check to see whether your BIOS will support bootable CDROMS and the installation should resume if you have a full release.

Better yet; One, BIOS update; Two, start the install from scratch again (boot to the CD). The controllers are not incompatible with Windows 2000 if they are IDE. If you have a SCSI controller, then this is possible, but downloading an update and hitting F6 on the startup when booting off the CD will fix this. If you are not sure what controller you have, then you have an IDE.
