I have so many fonts that it is slowing down my computer so I decided to load a font manager. I loaded Font Frenzy. The next day I was unable to load any more fonts. I thought maybe it was because of Font Frenzy so I removed it. I still can't load any fonts.

Consider getting more RAM as Windows have to load up all those fonts every time it boots up into the tiny memory (384mb).

Also consider that getting RAM for that old a CPU may not happen. Of course I don't have the exact details so I may be totally wrong, but I've given up looking for RAM for my P3's and now salvaging systems. I picked up an old compaq with 512MB of RAMBUS for $25 (remember how much that stuff used to cost?)

You may want to check used computer stores and repair depots for such ram.

Of course verify what you need first.

Now can you not remove some fonts? As XpUser stated each font is loaded at boot time and they take a lot of RAM (comparatively).

I took off some of my fonts thinking it was to full but it still won't allowing me to install other fonts. Any other suggestions?
