Question about Computers & Internet
Some computers have problems with having two operating systems, such as your xp and 2003. You could try deleting the 2003 server and downloading xp only.
If your os does not work after doing this then it is a safe bet that the problem lies with the xp software you have (It might have a corrupt file on it) and you might need to get a new copy of xp.
If all else fails then your 2003 server should be a fine substitute for your os

Hello, here are the steps to resetting your computer.
Reinstall Windows from a Disk
1 Turn on your Toshiba Satellite. Insert your
recovery disk or the original Windows operating system DVD
into the Satellite's
CD/DVD drive. Turn off the computer.
2 Turn on the Toshiba Satellite. In the first
few seconds while it is starting up, press and hold the F12 key on your
keyboard to access the Boot Menu. (Note: Some Toshiba models may tell you to
press "C" to boot
from the CD-ROM). The screen will display boot for
this boot up session only.
3 Use the arrow keys to navigate. Select the
CD-ROM/DVD drive to highlight it. Press "Enter." Be aware that this
setting is for this session only; it is not a permanent change.
4 Allow the computer to start up. Follow the onscreen
instructions for reinstalling the operating system from the disk.
Reinstall from a Recovery Partition
1 Boot up the Toshiba Satellite. In the first
few seconds while it is starting up, press and hold the F8 key. This will begin
the "Advanced Boot Options" menu.
2 Use the arrow keys on your keyboard to navigate
the menu. Move the keys to select "Repair Your Computer." Press
"Enter."
3 Select your language and keyboard; click
"Next."
4 Select your Windows user name from the
drop-down menu. Enter your password if required. Click "OK." This
will begin the "System Recovery Options" menu.
5 Select the Toshiba Recovery Wizard and follow
the onscreen instructions. The Toshiba Recovery Wizard will delete all existing
data on the hard drive and reinstall Windows.
Hope this helps!
