I have a Toshiba Satellite P30 laptop. It comes with Windows XP Home
edition.

I would like to make this laptop dual booting with Windows 2003 Server and
Windows XP Home edition.

The system has an 80 GB hard drive with only one partition currently (C.

Please advise how I should go about doing this.

You'll need to shrink the partition with Partition Magic (or equal) then
boot the Windows 2003 install CD-Rom and choose to
install to the unallocated space. Setup will create and format the partition
for you.
