[QUOTE="Ragle, post: 43413, member: 5555"] A friend of mine ended up with an extra mouse and keyboard from a G5 deal and he gave them to me for us with my iBook. They are the clear acryllic kind that I see on the desktop units at CompUSA. The mouse works awesomely, even if it is just a one button model. Plus, it matches my machine. I wanted to use the keyboard primarily because of the two extra USB ports on it for when I am home and needing to plug in several things. However, with the keyboard plugged in, my iBook refused to boot up. It would start and then give me that little Black Screen of Death in Three Languages telling me to restart the computer. I tried this multiple times. Once I unplugged the keyboard, no problems at all. Am I doing something wrong or is there some kind of software issue I need to address in order to get this to work?
