My brother gave me this laptop that has two operating systems installed on it. (Windows xp). The only way to get on the internet is to run it in safe mode which is very annoying because I cannot see pictures or anything. I have a Dell Latitude. Model number PP01S. If anyone can tell me what to do, I would be very greatfull. Thank you.

You have to delete the partition which contains that OS
Put your XP installation disk or Vista disk then boot your computer from CD.
This would open a program that may help you change the partitions.
I would recommend you not to do this on your own take help from some experienced person.

OH GOD ! I did this and it was torture trying to get everything to work again but I had two HDs, you have to wipe one of your hard drives if you have two and then on the hard drive that you have kept the OS on you will have to re-install all of the drivers, the best programme for that is Everest as it tells you what drivers are missing and gives you links to websites that have the driver ready for download !
Hope that helped !!!
