"installed" according to Font Navigator or is that the total in your
font directory?

I recently solved this sort of problem for a friend who had only 100
odd "nstalled"but it turned out there were over 1,000 in the
c:\windows\fonts directory.

Just moved 80% of them (manually - not with Font Navigator) to a new
directory outside the c:\windows area, and all the problems
disappeared.
