Did you even try to search the web for help? Try google with keyword 
'aptitude'.
Second, debian 3.1 (Sarge?) is hopelessly outdated. Since then both etch 
(4.0) and lenny (5.0) have been released, the latter being the current 
stable. Get a new netiso-image for lenny and install with that. This 
will make sure you'll have security support (that's no longer available 
for Sarge), and also makes sure you run aversion of Debian most people 
on the list can help you with.
