I've many problem with my 6 month old PowerMac G4.

First my processor broke after two months, now my keyboard will not work.

I get a message from the computer saying there "isn't enough power from the usb device."

Can someone help me with this. I would really appreciate it.

Are you using the stock keyboard or an after-market keyboard?

there must be a short or some thing inside the keyboard, you should send it to be checked out.

Thanks for the replies.

The Keyboard was plugged directly into the computer. I went to the Apple store and spoke with the genius, and he said the keyboard is probably failing. Going to have it tested today.
