Ok... Now I broke it...

Hi again... Well, now I guess I broke it. Don't know how I did, because I haven't done anything different since it was working just fine. But maybe one you you guys how really knows the insides of this game can help me. My delete button and the "control/shift/c" keys are not working. I can't detete any objects at all that I purchase and place in my Sims homes. I can move them around, and everything else seems to be working just fine. But my keys aren't working now. I've already tried 3 different keyboards, so I'm sure it's not the keyboard itself. And well, the keyboard buttons work fine outside the game. Can someone please help me and tell me what to do to fix this problem. Thanks, David

Have you recently installed a program that might be co-opting the keystrokes?  I installed PointerXP once and it was mapped to use CTRL-Shift-C.  As a result, I was no longer able to use that key sequence in the Sims.  Remapping the hotkey in PointerXP resolved the issue.  Of course, I can't think of anything that would interfere with the Delete key...

Well, no I haven't added any new software or anything. But thanks for replying. Also, I wanted to add this. Isn't there some kind of program for the Sims games that you can install for custom content that will check and see if there are any conflicts with anything in the game? Thanks again guys.
