Thread: Trying to dual boot 11.04 and a very old WinXP Professional


computer working fine 11.04 on there, husband insists on having winxp on there too. since know not installing winxp first causes trouble, did that. can't install ubuntu. it's old version of winxp professional , can't update because doesn't have right drivers nic (i figure if husband wants xp work can make work himself, , don't know drivers needs anyway). disc worked on same computer (wubi started) different, updated version of xp when first got it. when try start wubi says "this application has failed start because application configuration incorrect." if try install ubuntu booting disc, instillation either fails copy boot files or crashes. there anyway make work?

first of all, please give complete hardware description.
