Access Connections broken in an odd way (Image)

#1 Post by LB_BlueVue » Fri Nov 20, 2009 2:32 am

My Access Connections "works", but it's totally unusable... every character of text is a box!!

I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, updating, etc.... no luck. It's stuck! Can anyone help??

What's really strange is that I don't have any trouble with the menu that first comes up with Fn-F5, so I can easily select any of the pre-existing profiles. If I try to connect to a new network, the dialog to set options and encryption is totally legible too. It seems to be isolated to this one single page. (every tab on that page, however, does have the same problem)

As near as I can tell, no other TVT modules are affected.

What version are you using? Looks like a Chinese download...
Maybe an older one will work?

Looks like whatever font Access Connections uses is missing from your system.

It's version 5.33.
It does look like perhaps a missing font. Any guess as to what font it is??
To the best of my knowledge, I haven't added or deleted any fonts from my machine recently.

Apparently .NET Framework is to blame. Uninstall all of your .NET stuff and reinstall it, problem solved.

That did the trick!
I uninstalled all versions of .NET, then re-installed just .NET 3.5.

Thanks!
