My brother installed this program and it replaced some fonts like Arial, sans serif and Courier with links to those that are in that programs folder. It was alright but some of those fonts looked messed up, like the SNs in my buddy list looked screwed up. So I deleted that program and delete the linked fonts in the Windows fonts folder, when I restarted, XP replaced the deleted fonts with the original. So now my buddy list is fine, but this other one seems to be messed up. Yes I tried looking in display properties and it's fine. I looked on the XP cd and the fonts are there but they're renamed to stuff like ARIAL._TT and if I rename it to ARIAL.TTF the font viewer doesn't recognise the file.

Here's a screenshot http://slider-gta.members.easy...t.jpg

So I would like to know how to fix this? Or If anyone knows where I can download the original fonts.

Thanks

Thanks again Looks like I was missing a font or more since it wouldn't let me overwrite most of the fonts but a few copied in. Windows must've not restored it, after I deleted it, so it was using a different font. Everything is fine now

This forum rules :ylsuper even though I don't own a Nissan anymore there's a ton of good information here.
