Find an install of Windows where the fonts are intact, and copy those fonts to a thumbdrive or somthing and then put all of them in your fonts folder, and make sure you overwrite the ones that are on your machine now, if it asks.

Be carefull about this discussion. Fonts are like art, or even software, and are licensed. You can purchase fonts through various websites, yes some fonts are free, many are not.

That being said, you get "free" fonts with many software packages and this is likely where you got the fonts from in the first place. Simple answer is to reinstall that software.

You can also move fonts (again licensing issues here) from the control panel, fonts, file-install new font. Point it at the source and go from there.

You could also try a repair install. You also can't just copy them into the Fonts folder...they need to be installed from the File menu of the fonts folder.
