[QUOTE="NanoBite, post: 413086, member: 13565"] Funny that the mouse is receiving power .... have you tried plugging the mouse directly into the USB 2.0 ports on the base of the G4? I know it's not going to produce a miracle but it'd be interesting to know if the mouse will function once removed from the keyboards USB 1.0 port. Maybe the keyboard might work if you have the mouse connected via one of the other G4's USB ports instead? I thought this was an interesting read: [URL="http://www.ehmac.ca/mac-ipod-help-troubleshooting/33147-my-usb-ports.html#post306485"][I][COLOR="Navy"][B]Post # 5 from CanadaRam[/B][/COLOR][/I][/URL] I can't vouch for the accuracy of any of this information, though. The USB 2.0 ports on my previous iMac G5 stopped producing enough juice to power my EyeTV DTT USB device and if I hadn't gotten a new iMac out of Apple I know the AppleStore tech would've just ordered in a new logic board.
