How do I delete? Or how to access the non-functional
system if system does not recognize me as administrator?
Also how to copy security package from one OS to another?
 
I may be misunderstanding the question.

There's no way to "clean" remove one of the two Windows 2000 installations
if you installed to the same partition (drive).

You can delete the appropriate systemroot folder (i.e. if you've installed
to \winnt and \winnt2, you can delete \winnt2 and keep winnt) and modify the
boot.ini to remove the extra entry.

There's no supported method of obtaining the administrator password.
