Hi, I have a problem with After Effects when I try to start it it seems to stop on the splash screen "Reading Fonts" I've tried deleting fonts till it opens normally, but that hasn't helped. Is there any other solutions to this problem? I'm running AE 5.5 on Pent. 3 866htz 512MB.

Thank you all.

sincerely,

John

Hello Evol. Thank you so much for that help. I was going crazy trying to figure this thing out. It's now working once again. Many thanks.

And...
Thank you Rick Gerard for advising on looking into a font managing program. I do have a lot of fonts. It sounds like those are just what I need. Thank you both.

Sincerely,

John
