font errors/problems

[Grant Hogarth]

One additional thought --- are the fonts there and not corrupted?

I've had enough problems with certain font files getting corrupted that 
I have a zipped set of them stored on a different drive for rapid 
replacement and I usually run chkdisk or SpinRite on the drive before 
reinstalling to make sure I'm not accidentally saving things to an iffy 
sector.
