Go to the folder with your .ini files (I am Windows 7 and mine are under My Docs>My Games>Skyrim). Delete them and run the Skyrim launcher.

Those two files don't deal with the keymappings so I'm not sure why they would have worked but here's something you could try...

1. Delete the following files if they exist on your system:
  • ControlMap_Custom.txt (root Skyrim installation folder)
  • controlmap.txt (Skyrim\Data\Interface\Control\PC)
2. Start Skyrim and load a character
3. Open the Menu and go to the Controls section
4. Click the Default button
5. Save
6. Reboot the game to see if the changes worked

Good luck and report back please.
