I recently got a dell poweredge 2300 from a friend for free. I tried to boot it up but it won't go to the login screen, it just keeps looping the start up utility stuff. any ideas on how to fix it?

Reformat it with a new OS. Windows 2000 is a nice one, and it's cheap now.

its already got xp on it. also i have no money with which to buy a new os
i am actually not sure. the history of this computer is pretty much unknown to me or the person i received it from
Use your copy of XP to boot and then use the recover option. If that does not work, you may have to re-install.
