NT domain controller removal

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hello everyone.
I have a few online and few shutdown/gone NT 4.0 domain controllers in Mixed
Windows 2000 domain what is the best way to take them off from the network
and whole entire AD enchilada.
It is too late for me to ask my bosses to spend any money on a third party
product to do this job.( i havenot planned about it.so cant's ask now)

When i tried to remove the account from Domain controllers containers, AD
spits a error warning, Can't be deleted.

I have multi domain,single forest,both mixed mode, parent child relationship
between domains.
Need some specifics,let me know.

Thanks A TON
