No text in "How To Play" box

[John259]

Hi, a newbie player here,

When I click the in-game question mark icon near the bottom-left of the screen, the "How To Play" box appears with its tabs, but no text ever appears in the box. Sorry if this is a known problem, I did search the forum but couldn't find any references to it.

I'm running on Windows XP SP3 with 3GB of ram and an XFX 7600GT video board, and I'm on a 1Mbps broadband connection. Everything else in the game seems to be operative and as far as I know there are no other problems with the computer.

Thanks in advance for any assistance,

John
