Restart with the Option, Command, P, and R keys held down. Release them after the second chime.

Sorry, Niel. I never got any beeps on the computer. The process only led me to a screen to restore the OS. However, the restore was to a Mountain Lion OS , and I was El Capital, to it would not restore. But somewhere in this mess, the keyboard began working again. I have no explanation for the fix, but I will take it.
