If they are fully plugged in, maybe you have a hub and it's overloaded. Try removing everything else - microphone, cameras, external hard drives, printer, scanner. I have problems when the kids plug in i-pods, but restarting the pc should have solved the problem.
Try re-installing the software that came with the keyboard and mouse. If you have an older computer that isn't plug and play the software may be corrupted.
As already suggested, try another mouse and keyboard.
If none of that works, then something may be physically damaged.

If turning everything off and back on doesn't work, then your computer is broken. Call a repairman.
