here's a regluar way to do it if you want. Hit shift 5 times, or go to Start, Settings, Control Panel, Accessibility Options, Click Settings Make sure the check boxes are NOT checked, then go into each Settings area and uncheck the box for "Use shortcut" Click ok, make your way to the general tab and at the bottom check both boxes. Newver had any problems after that. This also tells you where they are if you want them later....for some odd reason.
