stuck in dual boot, want one to go away

I was trying to install an OS on a DELL 2950 server and using a dell utility DVD. During the install in realized I had hit WINDOWS 2000 as the OS and found it would not see my hard drives anyway. I then found a WINDOWS 2008 DVD and did a full install, but someone there is still a trace of the WINDOWS 2000 install and I am stuck with DUAL boot. To make it worse the WINDOWS 2000 install is the default, so if I ever have to reboot remotely, I will never get it to come back up. How can I get WINDOWS 2008 to be the default and better yet get the WINDOWS 2000 install to just disappear and not be seen again?
