Hi Vitamin, and thank you for getting back to me. The reasons i changed the systems.reg file to this is from the looks of the other links ...ie http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?t=515&highlight=wine+fonts+messed http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?t=488&highlight=wine+fonts+messed http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?t=392&highlight=wine+fonts+messed that if i change the line .... [System\\CurrentControlSet\\Hardware Profiles\\Current\\Software\\Fonts] 1208801152 "FIXEDFON.FON"="vgafix.fon" "FONTS.FON"="vgasys.fon" "LogPixels"=dword:00000060 "OEMFONT.FON"="vga850.fon" then it will put things back how they should. When i tried this it reset the window back but not the content of the window. After tring the 'rm -rf ~/.wine'. This has worked. But it done look like Winecfg has been reset to default. Now its working i should be about to sort out the rest. Many thanks
