GVIM replace from clipbrard?

I use VIM on various *NIX platforms.

I use GVIM on various MS Windows hosts.

I often do this:
1. Copy a string to the clipboard
2. Visual mode select a string
3. :s/<type a string to be replaces>/<Ctrl-v the clipboard string>/g
4. Enter - replace all substrings

This works delightfully everywhere - EXCEPT on Windows host!

On that host, Ctrl-v pastes the entire Visual Mode selection - NOT the originally copied string!

I'm sure that I've got something in that host's VIMRC; but, what is it?

This has been plaguing me for months ...

Please, advise. Thank you.
