if u want win 2000 specificly then u can upgrade win 98 to 2000 by runing setup in win 98...but if u want all the three than please check disk E drive for any bad sector ...
another method is start computer in xp ..
go to computer management ...
[To open Computer Management, click Start, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel. Double-click Administrative Tools, and then double-click Computer Management. ]
Open Computer Management (Local).
In the console tree, click Disk Management.

Right-click the partition, logical drive, i.e e drive and then click Delete Partition.
Important
When you delete a partition, all data on that deleted partition or logical drive is lost.
You cannot recover deleted partitions or logical drives.
after deleting then create a new partion by right clicking on the logical drive.
after this follow the instructions
restart your computer and start setup ...

Sounds like a problem with the MBR. There are several causes that come to mind. Run your antivirus software to rule out a boot sector virus.
BE SURE THAT YOU BACK UP YOUR DATA ASAP. This could also be an indication that the read/write head on the hard drive may have touched the HDD at the MBR (usually this will cause a message 'OS not found'). Backing your data will help if it is a hardware problem with the HDD.

Use a HD diagnostic utility to check Disk E:.

It would make trouble for your computer that you installed all your OSs on a same drive!
But try Last known configuration , if doesnt work then try safe mode,
and if doesnt work im sorry then. Format your OS's drive.
