looking for support on the Power Mac G4

I have a Power Mac G4 Mac 0SX version 10.4.11

Recently, when turning on, the keyboard and mouse don't work.

Is there any way to fix this or will I have to put my Mac to rest?

Thank you.

Have you tried just unplugging and plugging them in, again?

Tried using different USB ports?

Have you tried a PRAM reset?

  1. Shut down your Mac.
  2. Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
  3. Turn on the computer.
  4. Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
  5. Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
  6. Release the keys.
