You must be using a desktop machine. On all the laptops I've had, I've been able to hold down the Command and Option keys with my left thumb, the R key with my left middle finger, the P key with my right thumb and the Power button with my right middle finger.
On a desktop machine, you would have to move the keyboard close to the Power button to be able to do this alone. > I don't hear 4 chimes, I hear a buzzing sound 4 times, then the normal > startup sound again. Am I executing the reset procedure properly? I don't think so. I always hear the chimes. > How does one know that it actually worked? Hearing the chimes tells you that it's working and if problems go away that didn't go away with just a restart, then that's more evidence that it's worked.
