No smoke and no lights

Groan number 2677.....on my laptop (Acer with XP with 9600 card) I have FSX Gold with Accel. Now for ages I have been turning on both lights and smoke from the keyboard using 'L' and 'I'....no probs.

Suddenly my machine has decided it does not want to do that anymore! The settings are correctly there in "Options, settings" and yet amazingly "G' still works for the gear! Something silly and simple isn't it..... but what?

I have no Yoke/Joystick settings for these functions....I did try to set a button for smoke but that didn't work either so dumped that idea.

I even clicked on the smoke button in the Extra 300 cockpit but no smoke. OK I know smoking is bad for you but I do need it for my aerobatics in the 300.

Very close to my 300th nervous breakdown with this FSX
