Cyrillic system fonts

When I install Russian software all the cyrillic fonts appear as question marks. This makes it especially hard to run the installation. I think this is because the system uses Western fonts. I can not find the system font pointers in the registry. Any advice?

hmm...before you go messing round in the registry, have you tried going into control panel and clicking on international settings and select Russian as default it will ask for your NT disc and will load in more fonts
I honestly don't know if this will fix your problem, but I do the same thing here loading English NT in a Swedish enviroment.

Loading cyrillic in the Control Panel \keyboad will only add the cyrillic support for Applications to use but not for the Operating System Itself.
With Windows 95 I usedd to relpace the fonts that system used itself for loading.
What you could try is: Install Cyrillic Fonts, Go to the Display properties\Appearence and play with changing the fonts to Cyrillic Specific.
The Best and the most painless way to fix the Problem is to get the Localized version of Windows NT. That will save You the whole trouble.
