Purchased font wont install?

Hey, been away from here a bit too long!!
Working too much!

Basically i have an issue on a windows 2000 pro networked pc

I log in as local admin or domain admin, try to install a font "Vag Rounded"
Its been working on XP machines, 98 machines..but this machine is troublesome!!

It puts them in the fonts folder, even though it says errors about a purchased font unable to convert to truetype.

If you click say times new roman in the fonts folder, it shows you examples, the vag doesnt show you anything, doesnt even open.

Anyone got a resolution as its for a company and i am FRESH OUTTA IDEAS!!!

Re: Purchased font wont install?

Instead of manually putting them in the Fonts folder, go to Start > Control Panel > Fonts, then File > Install New Font.
