View 9 Replies View RelatedI have MS Vista Basic Home Edition with service pack 1 and all updates current up to 6-1-2008 (there are today 6-4-2008 two updates waiting to be installed, but now I am afraid to install them due to the following problem). I have MS Office Home and Student 2007. My computer is a PowerSpec 32-bit with 2 GB of RAM and my monitor is an Acer 17? All of this was purchased about four months ago.
On 6-1-2008, when I turned on my computer I was notified of two MS updates (I do not use automatic updating), and installed them:
* Update for Windows Vista (KB947562)
* Definition Update for Windows Defender - KB915597 (Definition 1.33.9770.6)
My computer installed and then automatically shut down and re-started........
I need to switch often the Windows Vista font size, thus being forced to reboot everytime. Is there a particular reason why Microsoft planned to reboot on changed font size? Is there a way to avoid reboot on changed font size?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am trying to find the font folder, so that I can copy a font onto a disk to put onto my laptop. In other versions of Windows its C:windowsfonts, which it appears to be in Vista, but once in C:Windows I cannot find the fonts folder. If I go through the control panel to the fonts folder it will not let me copy the front from there. It will let me right click the font to copy, but not let me paste onto a memory stick. I have already got into Folder options and made sure that Hidden files are visible.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI know it is possible to change the appearance of text on Vista, I believe it is called clear? I only suffer feint text (looks like ink is running out on printed paper) on certain things ie. The Spybot home page or some windows when down loading stuff from the net. Is there a tweak that brings ALL text up clean and clear?
View 5 Replies View RelatedProblem is with an Acer 5103 laptop running Vista Home Premium. After several months of fairly satisfactory operation apart from the normal unexpected shutdowns there is now a more serious problem. When online the fonts in drop down boxes are so small as to be almost unreadable. On the Google start page the "Google Search/I feel lucky" text is very small as is the text when I type in the search box. I thought this was a browser problem until I came to use Excel today and found the column widths had closed right down and the column letters and row numbers were very small.I have checked in "Advanced Appearance" and all the settings seem correct. The computer is not one I normally use but it seems to me that the whole appearance of the display is rather unusual, but this may be because I am used to XP.

Anyway, ever since I got it back to normal, the views in folders keep changing randomly. In my documents I always have the view as small icons.But now that's gone and it's just got them lined up in a single line. How can I fix it? And why do the appearances of all my folders keep changing randomly?

View 9 Replies View Related1) Many of the guides I saw about enabling Aero said to go to Control Panel > Appearance and Personalization > Change the color scheme, then click "Open classic appearance properties for more color options" when the "glass" screen comes up. The problem is, when I click "Change the color scheme", the window that comes up is the one when you're supposed to click "Open classic appearance properties for more color options". Get it?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI don't know if anyone can help me, but I was wondering something. I just got this laptop 7 months from a friend. I was wondering why the smallest font size on this thing is only 8? Is there anyway to add any font sizes smaller than 8. I need at least a 6. It is this way for every font. And i have the same problem on my desktop and it's still XP. If anyone could shed some light on this, I'd be grateful. Thanks.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI edited the registry and either modified or deleted a line
regarding font size.
Since then all my html messages use size 12 in Windows Mail, Live Mail, or
Yahoo Mail.
I can specify the use of a different size, but as soon as I type anything,
the size reverts to 12.
I can change any other attribute such as face, bold, etc. and they all
work.
I would like to reinstall Windows Mail but I understand that's not possible
as it's inseparable from Vista.
I've run sfc /scannow and there are no problems.
The only solution that seems possible it to fix or replace that registry
line I screwed up.
Incoming email is difficult to read because of age and font size. Have checked out ideas on Goggle and Windows "Help and Support". Either I'm too thick or the suggestions are no longer applicable. I'm using Vista, IE 8 and Windows mail.
View 9 Replies View Relatedis there's an equivalent to XP's Display Font Size in Vista? In XP Display Properties, Appearance tab we can change Font size to Large or Extra Large. This is useful for people who want high resolution desktops but find it hard to read small text (without sitting really close which is bad for eyes). I know there's a DPI setting in Vista just as there is in XP, but it's not the same as Font size.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am really tired of Vista deciding what it wants to do with no input from me. This time all the font sizes in the display windows decided to grow larger. It was fine when I turned off the PC, but when I turned it on the next day all the font sizes had grown by at least 100%. I tried to change the size of the font, but that did not work. In reality I would like to get rid of Vista and go back to XP--there I didn't have to worry what it was thinking up to do today
View 9 Replies View RelatedI just discovered that I am unable to copy and paste a font. The computer that has the font runs Vista 64 bit. Have tried right-clicking and the Organize function. When I try, the Copy function is present but when I attempt to paste to another location on the same computer so that I can eventually email the font as an attachment, the Paste function is grayed out. Tried it on a friend's computer and her situation is the same. Her computer is also Vista 64 bit. On my computer, I am the Administrator and sole user.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI suspect there maybe a simple answer to this, but for the life of me I can't find how to do this. My default font was changed about 2 weeks ago (long story as to how and why) to something that looks like GEORGIA or LUCIDA or something similar, and was forgotten to be changed back. So every webpage I open, every menu option, is all in this new font which I dislike.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI want to delete the Tahoma font from the Fonts folder in Vista and instead manage it with a font program I have installed so that I can activate and deactivate it as required. Vista won't allow me to delete it, instead this message appears: "This action can't be completed because the file is open in another program Close the file and try again". During the delete process I have all programs closed. I have tried deleting with certain processes not running but still no luck. Is there any way to determine which program is using the font? Any ideas how I can delete it?

View 9 Replies View RelatedOS: Vista Home Premium 64-bit with Office 2003
When a client asked me to do a document using Times New Roman 12, I
discovered that Vista did not have that font (it didn't appear in my font
list nor was it available in Word), so I downloaded and installed it from a
file called Times32.exe. I had to manually extract the TTF files from the
archive because running the exe didn't install the font, even though the
installer said it had. When I used Vista's Add New Font and specified the
actual TTF files, Vista said they were already installed, and THEN Times
New Roman appeared in Vista's font list and in Word 2003.
Now I have Word 2003 telling me that I'm using Times New Roman, but it
doesn't look like Times New Roman on my screen nor on paper. It comes out
in both places looking like Tahoma, which is what I set up to be my default
font in Word.
At first I thought it might be a problem with the template (.dot) file I
was using for my client, so I created a blank new document using Normal.dot
and set the font to Times New Roman. It looked like Times New Roman on my
screen, but on paper it looked like Tahoma.
Do I need to find a special edition of Times New Roman specifically for
64-bit Vista? Why is what I see not what I get?
i tried to use Nokia maps loader and got error. after bit of researching i found out that im missing Tahoma font. I have tahoma bold but no tahoma normal. I have no idea why its missing. I tried to copy it from my laptop with vista but i cant do it (don`t have needed permissions). Only solution i have found is to buy it for 30$. but that`s not and option. Im running Vista ultimate 64 bit.
