Fallout 2 "Couldn't Find/Load Text fonts"

[TSMhael]

Just like the title for the thread says when I go to start the game I get this error "Couldn't Find/Load Text fonts" I uninstalled and reinstalled in humongous just like the FAQ post says to do but I'm still getting that error. My OS is Win XP and from what I've read Fallout 2 doesn't like Win XP too much so I don't hold out too much hope for myself, but any help would be appreciated.

Have you tried to ScanDisk it? It seems that the error is caused by corrupted Master.dat file.

Also, while uninstalling the game you must be sure that everything is removed, as the uninstall program tends to leave some files to your computer (including the corrupted Master.dat...)
