on a new machine with an xp pro upgrade over the top of my old W98, this
good old keyboard shortcut no longer works. Everything else seems to still
work ok (ctrl + c,v,x etc) Why, oh why?

It still works fine. Your big mistake was to install over Win 98. It never
will work right. You must do a clean install. You can use the upgrade disk as
long as you can show the Win 98 disk when asked for proof.

actally I did a clean install like you describe - using my 98 disk - (sorry
that's what I meant but I said over the top)
