Do u have XP CD ?

no. but that is not a problem. i had paragorn partition manager installed. i pressed ESC continously during booting and managed to boot in xp. i set xp to boot first with paragorns boot manager. the problem is with ubuntu not working the way it should work. its like working in DOS.

i had downloaded from the torrent link in ubuntu site.
