I have a win 98 system that crashed recently and now it lookes like

some sort of system font is messed up. Many places in different

programs and in the os itself the font looks wierd and blocky

sometimes. check boxes and radio buttons are no longer displayed

correcty and the minimize, maximize, and restore buttons one my

windows are all messed up to. Any ideas?
