If you don't have an XP disk you can always run the recovery disk, but make sure you back up your data first if you do. It will reset everything to factory settings, so you'd lose any unsaved data.
Cheers mate, looks like my only option is to back up everything then do a clean restall of XP. Its just a shame as everything on my Netbook is working great apart from the dual boot option. And your right the Toshiba recovery disk will only let me do a clean install, so I would lose everything. :-(
