Upgrading to Win2000 from Win98(French)

Hi I bought a PC with WIN98 (French Version)installed on the C partition. But I want to upgrade it to English version of Win2000. As soon as I started the auto-installation, it gave me an error that French Win98 is already present in the system and you can't upgrade it due to language problems. Then I performed a clean installation of Win2000 on D partition but I want that Win98 to be removed from my system. Now my system is in dual boot mode. Thanks if some one can suggest any solutions

Boot from the Win 2000 CD and delete, then recreate new partitions and make a full clean install. When you delete the partitions everything will be gone so be sure and back up anything you want to keep.
