Got Lucky on G4 USB-PCI card repair

[Richard M. Kriss]

I have been having trouble with USB ports and the Keyspan USB PCI card
finally crapped out.  Neither of the two port would work and were not being
recognized by the System Profiler.

Before going to CompUSA to purchase a new Belking, I pulled the Keyspan USB
PCI card and cleaned the contacts with a pencil eraser.  Installed the card
and it lives! For once I managed to fix something rather than screwing it
up.

It seems to be working good and even the picky devices like the iMic are now
very happy wth the two fresh USB ports.

I hope this helps someone experiencing USB weirdness!
