Italics instead of plain text.
Hi! I have a minor annoyance with my laptop that's running Windows XP Pro
with SP3 installed. I don't know exactly when it happened, but I noticed that the text messages that are displayed on the Welcome screen have all started to show up in italics. My desktop PC which is running Windows XP Home doesn't have this, so how can I change the laptop back to non-italic text on the welcome screen?

This is a guess on my part:
Look at Start, Settings, Control Panel, Display, Appearance tab, Review the list on the Item: box. Caution, note what is there so you can return the item to its original setting if you change it. Best to note with paper and pencil if your memory is like mine. -- Don - Windows XP Pro® SP 3 Vancouver, USA "Roy Smith" wrote in message ... Hi!

Do you have Styler installed? If so, check your settings within.

The non italic version of the font used for the Welcome screen has been deleted or become corrupted. Windows will automatically use the italic version if it can't find the normal version.

No, I'm not running any third party customization programs. Just what comes from Microsoft.

You know when I saw this it made a lot of sense. So I fired up Acronis and mounted my backup image and compared the fonts in my font folder to the backup. Found that there were about 20 some odd fonts that were no longer in the folder as compared to the backup. So I reinstalled them and all is fine now... -- Roy Smith http://roysmith1959.spaces.live.com/
