Do you have an old windblows boot disk, if so just run it to the A 
prompt and write
fdisc mbr <enter> that removes lilo from your windblows mbr. When you 
reboot you will be left with your windblows boot manager as before.
If you don't have an old windblows boot disk, maybe you can do the same 
thing from w2k by typing I think it is mrr or something like that in 
your startmenu-run
field which brings up windblows equivelent of a terminal, such as it is. 
I've never tried it but I should imagine it has the same effect if you 
type fdisc mbr there.
Let me know if it does.

After that your free to do whatever you want with the spare partitions.
