Delete Key not working

I just installed AutoCAD Architecture 2014 on my home computer and the delete key doesn't work.  I've searched this and other forums but the solutions suggested there haven't worked.  Since they are all rather old threads I thought I would start a new one.

I've checked that pickfirst = 1  (same thing but 'noun/verb selection' is checked)

 

Another forum( http://www.cadforum.cz/cadforum_en/qaID.asp?tip=3407) made these suggestions:

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.

 

I'm running on a notebook computer, an Acer Aspire running Windows 8  with an Nvidia GeForce GT 730M video card. I'm using just the built-in keyboard and I presume it came with up-to-date drivers and the video card is a different brand. I bought the computer in May of this year.  I have no idea what "switch off 'Hot keys' in Hydravision properties" means. The delete key works in other applications, so it isn't a problem with the button, so I'm all out of ideas.  I would sure like a solution to this problem.  I could have had this thing drawn with pencil and paper in the time I've spent troubleshooting.
