I have reinstalled EQII after several months away from the game..  I've gone through the patching but when i select PLAY a message box with the title 'Failed to init font' pops up with the text :"Failed to init Arial. You may need to reboot before some fonts will load."Rebooting does not resolve the problem.I haven't knowingly changed any fonts and I have checked the Windows fonts list and Arial appears to be installed and working.Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I found this while running a search....  Maybe it can help you too.<a href="http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/posts/list.m?topic_id=35498" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Failed to init Font message</a>Perhaps the font became corrupted...

Go in to the Preferences, then hit the Full File Scan button.  That should pick up corrupt files and re-download them
