How can I make sure I use Zonealarm not Microsoft firewall

My Compaq Presario M2010 laptop never ran Zonealarm properly since I
bought it about seven months ago. I run Zonealarm on my desktop for no
problem, but for
some reason, on the laptop, the Microsoft firewall seems to not allow
it to start up.

Can someone tell me the steps that can insure me that Zonealarm will
take over
the process and not Microsoft? It may be I'm using a newer
installation of XP
or something I do not know about.

I feel that the XP firewall is not operating properly as the laptop
tends to
get sluggish with multitasking, and I have no indication of what is
actually
being blocked, and so on.

Thanks for your help.
