ok, so i got a powermac from my friends dad for free. he said it had a bad hard drive. so i got a new one for it. so i pop in the hard drive, no problem, and put in a tiger disc. im trying to boot from the tiger disc to put OSX on the new hard drive, but theres a problem... i plug in 2 different keyboards (at different times) and they arent working. tried both USB ports. nothing. i tried the caps locks and number lock and no lights come up, so im assuming the USB ports are crap too? not sure as to what im supposed to do? this isnt my primary computer by any means, and was kinda wanting to just make it a server on my network here at home. any direction in what i should do? thanks guys.
