WinQVT Terminal emulation problem

I am trying out WinQVT v4.45 and have been having problems with the DEC
video emulation.  I believe I have installed the VT220.FON as per instructions,
but I may have messed it up.  When I select the DEC display (as apposed to
the IBM characters or ASCII) the cursor responds to all characters typed and
received, but NO characters show up on the screen!  The cursor just runs
around the page, but there is nothing to see.  If I then switch back to IBM
or ASCII characters, I can see everything that transpired.
 
I am really confused by this and have nothing to refer to other than my
WINDOWS manual and the WinQVT readme file.  So far, I have not been able to
figure out the problem.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  I am using and EVEREX EGA card.
Please E-Mail any suggestions to me unless you think other people may be
having this problem.
 
Thanks in advance,
Rich
