Give this a try:  Uninstall AH.  Now go into explorer-> program files -> htc -> aceshigh -> delete settings folder that will be left over.  Reboot and reinstall AH.  This will basically do a completely clean install of AH.  (You can keep the custom sound folders you might have.)

(Note: You will lose all of the previous view, jstick, keyboard mapping, sound volume, etc changes you made.)

Good luck!
