Text shows tiny black boxes rather than Letters ?

Post #1by Guest » 06.11.2002, 03:57

Hello:

All info text and labels are appearing as "black boxes" instead of letters (or numbers, if any).

Maybe I don't have the needed FONT installed on my computer . . . anyone know WHAT font the program text uses (or does the font come with the program)?

MY MACHINE:

Nimble (05/04/98) Custom-built Computer
Intel Pentium II, MMX, 300MHz Processor
Windows 95-b OSR2.5 OEM (4.03.1212) Operating System
Award Modular BIOS v4.51PG (1998)
ENPC (Enlightcorp) EP-KL21 v1.3 Motherboard (1998)
ATI 4MB 3D Rage Pro AGP 2X (28MB AGP) Video Card (4.11.2560 driver)
(NOTE: Video Card is in AGP slot on Motherboard)
Smile 17" Digital Color Monitor
DirectX 8.0a
192MB SDRAM DIMM Memory
12GB Quantum Bigfoot TX Hard Drive
Hitachi 24X CD-ROM Drive
Yamaha CDW3200EZ 40X CD-RW Drive

NOTE: Also noticed that I had to use the } to increase Ambient Illumination. Maybe my monitor is starting to go . . . because I noticed I cannot see anything on the first DOS screen (Primary / Secondary ) etc. . . . except The DEL and F4 which shows up as white letters.

After the first screen - I can see the other DOS screens correctly.

THANK YOU.
