My 6 year old was playing on my powerbook for a few
minutes, and now my keyboard seems to be locked out.
Every single key makes the same "beep" sound when
pressed.
I replaced the keyboard, considering the problem might
be with the hardware, but the problem persists.
Has anyone heard of a keyboard lockout command, or
even better, the reversal of such a command?
Thanks,
Brad
