Hmmm... looking over what you said.... I recall that XP comes with it's own fonts..... technically these are some of the same ones that you have with Photoshop...... XP may have overwritten them with it's own version. if you look in Adobe>Photoshop>Fonts...  in whatever directory you have it installed at, are those fonts listed? Lou.
