GPS Font now in italics?!

Recommended Posts

You know all the yellow text in the GPS receiver, well, it's now in italics, it definitely didn't used to be this way.I've narrowed it down to perhaps the installation of XP SP3.Question is, what is the font used? Making sure that font is on my system should be enough. Although it doesn't bother me that much, I would still like to try and fix it.

I did some searching around and it's the Arial Black font, that got "corrupted" somehow by SP3. It doesn't just affect FS. Why nobody caught this one is beyond me...Did find a solution on a FS Forum though:- http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/show...ad.php?p=705680Go to the Service Pack Uninstall folder and copy ariblk.ttf to another folder or the desktop (you might want to keep a copy of the file). Then go to the Fonts folder, set the view to Details and sort on Filename. Right-click ariblk.ttf and select Delete. Then copy over the file you recovered. That fixed it for me.
