hello,
I am trying to reinstall the OS on a Mac. I have the OS on DVD, the optical drive and a magic keyboard. The machine I am working on is stuck on the load screen so I can't access the blue tooth function. My question is will my magic keyboard work as a wired keyboard when plugged into USB? Or do I have to get a wired keyboard to re install OS?

Hello and welcome.

Yes, the Apple Magic Keyboards will work when connected via the included Lightning to USB Cable with Bluetooth off/unaccessible. You will need to make sure the power switch is turned on however.
