Real Time Data not being recognized in IB

[Josey]

I use IB and am trading in sim mode at this time. Suddenly today I cannot trade because when I set up either a stop or limit order I get a dialogue box that says "There is no market data available to drive the simulation engine." This seems to say that my quotes from IB are delayed quotes. They are not delayed and in fact are real time. Can you help?

I restarted IB and that seems to have fixed the problem.
