[Delete] key not working in AutoCAD on a new PC.

If you have the "Logitech Internet Navigator" keyboard, make sure you are using the latest Windows driver for this keyboard.

If you are using ATI card driver (Catalyst), try to disable the "ATI Taskbar icon application" (Display Properties\Settings\Advanced\Options) and kill the atiptaxx.exe process in the Task Manager. Also switch off 'Hot keys' in Hydravision properties.

In any case the PICKFIRST variable should be set to 1.

If you work in Boot Camp on a MacBook, you have to use the key combination [Fn]+[Del].
