hi
think you need to install 03 first on first partition then 2008, as boot set-up is different from 03, similar to XP/Vista not being compatible
could try repair install with 2008 disk?
hth
cheers!

You will need separate partitions for these OS's, but Balge was right. Install 2003 first on one partition, then 2008 and the second. Otherwise the 2003 boot sector will overwrite the 2008 boot sector.
