Keyboard shortcuts such as Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V and Ctrl-Z not working in Word 2010 on Windows 7?

Question

It seems like the shortcuts I've been using for years in previous versions of Word are not working anymore. For example Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V and Ctrl-Z are not working (there is Alt-Backspace, etc) and I have to learn new shortcuts. This is the thing I really don't want to do. I'm facing this problem only in Windows 7, I've got Windows XP with the same version of Office 2010 and these shortcuts are working just fine. Is there any way to change Word shortcuts to an old version?

Greetings,

Below is an article on switching back to the old versions of short-cuts. I get it. You really do not want to learn new short cuts HOWEVER, the time it takes to switch some items back to the old way may be more trouble than it's worth.
