View Full Version : Font key full

I have a couple of problems that might actually stem from the same root problem. I recently changed my motherboard and in order to get everything to work happily together I had to
completely reinstall Windows 95, so my registry is undoubtedly different from when I had the
old motherboard. The problems have to do with Fonts.

1)MS Word which I just completely reinstalled (from scratch--I didn't just overwrite) always
comes up with an error message of "Tahoma font is not installed. For best results, quit
the application and run setup." or some such. The thing is, Tahoma font is installed. Also,
my other computer has Word and not Tahoma font and doesn't have any such problems.

2)When installing Corel Office I got a message that the True Type fonts I wanted to install were
copied to the hard drive but may not be available because the font key in the registry is full. It says I should delete some fonts to get the fonts I do want. I know that in the past, I had a lot
of fonts without having to delete others.

So, I'm wondering, does the registry key being full have something to do with what's happening
with Word? And even if it doesn't, how can I change that registry key so that it accepts more fonts?

Thanks for any help.
