All of a sudden some math keyboard shortcuts are not working. For instance, cntrl + m ; does not give the operator ? ?. However, cntrl +m a = gives the equations aligned on =. cntrl + m . (period) does not give the multiplication dot.
Have I inadvertently changed a setting?
I do a lot of math stuff and have been using these shortcuts for a long time.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

A reboot generally cures these glitches, have you tried that? I've found FM's keyboard shortcuts are prone to getting clobbered for no identifiable reason; FM9 on WinXP seems particularly sensitive to it, presumably a bug or memory limit or something that's been around for a looooong time, though, as this has been mentioned for many versions.

Thanks but that did not work. I'm using Vista but... I tried upgrading to Windows 7 a few days ago. After waiting or a long time, I got a message saying that there was insufficient disk space - not true but I had to quit the installer. It seems the problem may have started then. I'm back to using Vista until I have time to mess with Windows 7.
