I am trying to install a rightious copy of MS FrontPage 2000 on Win XP
but it can't find various fonts and refuses to continue the install.
I have installed 3 different fonts but each time I have to start over
and enter the cd key etc and its been hours finding/installing the fonts etc.
Who knows how many more it wants !
I have tried a minimal install but its still hunting for missing fonts
on the hard drive. Microsoft site is no help.
If I could find a list of all the required fonts that would be helpful.
Any ideas ? Thanks

Do you have the rest of the Office 2000 package? If so, open Word and click on Help->Detect and repair.

I didnt have MsOffice- Installed OpenOffice-that didnt work-
so I found a site in Vietnam that had all the MsOffice fonts,
and I spent some time downloading and feeding them
one by one from another machine via a USB drive.
It finally said that Cab files were corrupt and it stopped
the installation and I finally gave up.
Just as well -its a hatefull program but I have a small
job to do. I'll get it done with Nvu Composer.
Thanks lots !
Edit: It is an original store bought full version CD - not a 'copy',
