I set my computer up to dual boot into 98 and 2000. I have removed 2000, but I can't get rid of the boot manager. Is there a way to do this without formatting everything?

Edit the boot.ini and set timeout=0. This doesn't really get rid of it, but at least you won't ever see it.

boot in to Win98 dos prompt or a floppy boot disk.
Make sure both sys.com & fdisk.exe is on the floppy disk.
from harddisk
<tpye> fdisk /mbr
from flppy disk
<tpye> fdisk /mbr c:
then
from floppy or harddisk
<tpye> sys c:
all done

Thank you for your help I no longer have the boot manager on my system. I knew about fdisk /mbr but the sys c: was new to me.
My thanks to you again.

The commands "fdisk /mbr" remove the master boot record & re-creates new master boot record so that the dos bootsector will boot up.
The commands "sys c:" make the drive bootable agine it all so know as bootsector.
