Mid-Flight Menu/Online Chat Box Text Issues

So every time I try to access the menus or online chat box mid-flight, the text is impossible to read as it is just grey blocks. I tried uploading a screenshot as an example, but it wouldn't let me post it.

Your upload is to big, try resizing it. You have have to reinstall FSX, this happened to me before

Well it told me that I had to post a minimum of 5 times before I could post the picture?  And I already reinstalled FSX once before because of this reason, and it did nothing.

Here is an example of the text that I see on the menus and online chat box:

Does that help anybody at all?

Try uninstalling the planes you've put on

Someone will know a cure for this.... [smiley=thumbsup.gif]...!

..(it has happened to me before, in FS 2004).

It is something to do with the; "Fonts"....
They are either missing, or the program (FSX) is looking at the wrong Windows set.

It is an easy cure, once someone tells you how to do it.... ::)...

...(I've long forgotten!)... :'(...!

Paul... ;)...!

...also...make sure the settings on your Graphics Card are correct!

Today I checked to see if there were any updates that I had missed and my VGA driver needed an update.

I took a look at that link, and it sounded like my exact situation but apparently not because it didn't work.
