XP Professional and Server 2003
I have two hard drives. I want to use both of them on the same computer, but keep one XP since my scanner utility is on there for my canon 6580. Can I do this? If so how do I do it?.

Yes, you can do this. Set your jumper settings for boot select.
If you really just need to have XP so that you can use the scanner utility (I am assuming that you want one HDD to be Vista), then you can just use a virtual machine (VM) for that particular application.
Microsoft Virtual PC is a free download for their site. Once loaded, you can install XP on it and use that VM for whenever you need to use that particular application without the need for another drive or partition with XP loaded on it.
