I just got a beige G3 from a friend and the keyboard would not work. I know the keyboard is good, as I had just used it to get some stuff from an old 7300. I also tried another keyboard I have. I tried plugging it into the ADB port in the back of the tower and in 2 ports on the monitor. Any suggestions?
yuk. Hope the mb iface isn't burned out.
Zap the PRAM.
Long shot: Try booting from CD.
Try different ADB cables.
Try cleaning the ADB sockets.
Remember: ADB is NOT hot swappable. The Mac must be shut down before you plug or unplug an ADB device.
