Default OT But I Need Help

First let me apologise for posting this here but I need help with Flight Sim X
When I Press Alt to show info Bar at top of screen The buttons appear but have no text in them. Could it be the FONT is missing and does anyone know the name of the font used.

I'm just guessing here, but I've had a problem with the FSX ATC font getting corrupted that was caused by not having the mip-map quality in the Catalyst Control Center set to Quality or High Quality. So if you have an ATI card, make sure your mip-map setting is set to Q or HQ, not performance. If you don't have an ATI card, then my guess was wrong.

Hope it helps.

I am using aNvida Card GTS 8800GTS But thanks for your input. I have not used FltSimX for sometime and I may have removed A Systems Font sometime ago on a clean up.
