   > When you try another keyboard, make sure you are using a keyboard for an   
   XT, not an AT. Most older keyboards have an XT-AT switch or state which they   
   are on the label. Many newer keyboards are AT only and will not work.   
   However, since the problem occurred immediately after the storm, there is a   
   high probability that the computer was damaged by a voltage spike. Try   
   another keyboard anyway - the keyboard may have been what was damages.
