Uninstalling the existing one can be done via Start --> Settings... --> Control Panel --> Add / Remove ProgramsHow? I always have trouble with these. I've downloaded them from virtualbox.org, what do I do with the file?
Locate the Virtualbox Guest Additions and the list and select to Uninstall.Once the uninstall has completed reboot (again into Safe mode) for good measure.
I would discourage installing any Virtualbox additions that you have downloaded, the Virtualbox Guest Additions are provided with the Virtualbox that you have installed. You install them via Devices --> "Insert Guest Additions CD image..." then run (double-click) the VBoxWindowsAdditions.exe that appears on your virtualbox guest CD drive.
Please note that for Windows XP you must install the Guest Additions in Safe Mode, which is just as well, as it appears that is all you have at the moment.
