A couple of things you can try:
1) Seek out and delete ALL the *.tmp files on both the Windows drive
and on any other drives where Windows apps are installed.
2) Run CHKDSK /F on the Windows drive until no more errors are
reported.
3) Check to see if you still have a VSHARE.386 file in the
WINDOWS/SYSTEM directory. The check your SYSTEM.INI file under the
[386Enh] heading to see that VSHARE.386 is still being loaded.
( device=VSHARE.386 )
You probably scrambled the alias listing for the various fonts causing
the strange icon text. To correct this, go into Windows Control Panel
in the Fonts control. You'll get a whole list of TT fonts in a list
box. Select ALL of the fonts then Remove them (but DON'T check the
"Delete from disk" box!) Then click the Add button and use it's Browse
box to select the WINDOWS/SYSTEM subdirectory. It'll list all of your
TT fonts. Select ALL of them again and click Install.
If the above doesn't cure the problem, You'll probably be faced with
reinstalling Windows and the Win-OS2 support.
Good luck;
