This usually happens when your Tahoma font (the basic font for XP) has been
deleted from your fonts directory. You need to go to another computer or
the web and find a file called TAHOMA.TTF. Copy this to the font folder
(you can find this folder by going to the control panel and looking for a
folder with a green "A" inside of it).
Once you've placed the TAHOMA.TTF font in the font folder you might have to
reboot.
