usb ports stopped working
I have a Power MacG4 MDD in fairly good condition. It was working fine about 2 hours ago. Then, the mouse and keyboard stopped working. I've narrowed the problem down to the USB ports in the back of the monitor. If I plug in a flash drive, it lights up but nothing registers on the computer that it's there. I think they are receiving power but not registering. Can this be fixed, or do I need a new monitor? Is it a sign my computer is on it's way out?
All information is greatly appreciated.
Power G4, Mac OS X (10.3.9)
