Poweredge 2800 No longer boots

How can I get my Dell Optiplex to see a USB keyboard DURING boot process? (So I can get to the BIOS.)
I cannot boot up my PC I just purchased. It gets to a screen that says no boot device is available. (This is not a hardware problem, I just need to format the drive.) I have a Windows XP disk and wish to install that onto this computer. Sounds easy to this point right? Well I did not realize when...

Repeated network switch failures
This is now the third switch at a small business location that has failed. This is their only switch. The first two were Dell, and the last was NetGear. Each time power is fine, but no connectivity. Powering on and off does not help. It has been happening about every 2 months, and it always...
