    I'd recommend just doing a VM. Less hassle and less destructive. Virtualbox or vmware server should do it just fine for you.

    Best thing to do is run VMWare or Virtual PC from microsoft.

    Hope this helps

    Using virtual is the best way to go. This way you can create several servers and workstations running 2003 and XP and you can apply Group Policy and other things to your XP machines. 2003 is pretty useless without clients connecting to it for DHCP, DNS and authentication. Also, of course, it is pretty darn impossible to get your dual booted XP to authenticate to your dual booted 2003 domain controller. :D
