Hello, this forum is awesome so I just registered to put forward my issue. I just moved to win7 x64 but having this strange font problem. Appears to be happening only with the sans-serif family bold text. See the screenshots for a better understanding...

It would help if we knew what the problem is.

I've checked your screenshots and can't see anything wrong.

Looks like Arial bold, which one would expect to see in headings.

The font at these places should be arial bold, but it is NOT!.... I might try to get some screenshots from someone's computer and put here to compare. Or you go to you tube search results page and see for yourself. I can't guess which font it is but its definitely not arial bold...

Well, that's me out. I don't like being called a liar. I don't like being shouted at and I certainly don't like being told where to go.

It looks suspiciously like Arial Bold, which is what I suggested in my reply.

My apologies for sounding rude, but I wasn't really. Just a humble request to help me out... Alright lets take it somewhere, please tell me is there some way I can re-install the fonts on my x64 windows without having to re-install the windows itself?
