I have a machine that used to hold a cluster. I uninstalled Clustering and want to get rid of the disks that were previously clustered. The only problem is that the DTC still thinks it is in a cluster, so removing those disks makes that service fail to start.
How do I tell DTC to stop clustering?

Pls post your OS/SQL Server version

Sorry. Version Info:
SQL 2000 running on Windows 2000 Advanced Server.
By the way I tried COMCLUST -r but because there is no cluster it won't let me do that either. I believe it is getting hung up on the log files that are on the drive that was my quorum drive.

Try “msdtc –uninstall” on all nodes and also remove the registry keys
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSDTC
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSDTC
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Current ControlSet0\Services\MSDTC
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet1\Services\MSDTC
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CID
If you are doing this on a prod, I would suggest you to take the full backup and schedule this for a weekend

I need MSDCT running won't this remove it from my Server?
If it does how do I put it back after cleaning it up?
