I have a Dell 2400. (I'm not on it now, obviously) My computer turns on and everything, and right when the desktop and everything should load, it turns off, then on. How can I fix this?

Is it on a loop or does it finally takes you to the desktop??
It sounds like your master boot record went bad.
Turn pc on and press F8 before pc boots on.

there might be something loose in the computer. open it up and make sure there is nothing loose. does it boot to windows if it does you might have a virus. try a linux live cd and see if your computers functions alright if it does then it is not your computer but windows. If that is the case the easiest method would be to reinstall windows after backing up your data with the linux cd. Same thing happened to one of my friend's pc and that was the only way i could fix it.
good luck
