windows 2000 server active directory problems

[omargoody]

i have a 30 PC network with 2 windows 2000 servers acting as domain controllers, lets call them DC1 and DC2. DC2 is no longer active (unrecoverable hardware failure). In the active directory of DC1 my secondary DC (DC2) still shows up. I can't seem to get it out of my DC1 active directory. Any suggestions on how to remove DC2 from active directory would be appreciated.
