Super Pi Problem?

[GunnySpook]

Literally - a problem with Super Pi.

I've tried several versions, and all of them give me what looks like a barcode font. Solid black vertical lines instead of readable text.

It almost looks like I might be missing a font or something.

Anyone ever see this before?

Any fixes?

Thanks!

Can we see some pictures.

 

[GunnySpook]

I'd love to!

(Can someone point me to an area/message/sticky that tells me how to get a screen window image into a post?)

I use a program called IrfanView to get my picture. (I believe you have the picture already). When you open the program press C key (capture). Anyway here is the site.

http://www.irfanview.com/

Then i use the site called Image Hosting and i host or put my picture on that site. Then i copy and paste the address in my post to show what picture i want others to see. I made an account here and its free.

Here is an example i copy and paste the Forum Code.

If you have a gmail account, I think you can post an album on google photos. I haven't done it before, but I think there's a link that you can get an external link for others to see the album...

Any idea what the root of the problem was? Seems like something that would be useful to know in the future for diagnosis of other's problems...

I don't have any idea - I looked around and found seveal versions, up to version 1.4.

None of them performed any differently - until the version 1.5 suggested by Sarsoft.

That version was the first I saw work.
