WinXP Fonts Lost
Recently my Fonts are lost when I start XP. I cannot read anything on the screen but all other funtions seems to be working well. I tried to re-install fonts by copying from my notebook. then it shows comprehensible letters in english. But whenever I shutdown the system and re-start back the same thing happen, need to re-install back the fonts and lately the themes...what could have happened? please need clarification and help from you guys who are quiet familiar with XP SP2.
AMD Athlon 2200+, 768 MB RAM, MSI (forget the model) motherboard, nVidea Video Card 64Mb |
