Default Windows starting up in different fonts. CANT SEE ANYTHING! - FAST REPLY PLEASE.

Hello,
Unfortunately, I think I have a major problem with Windows. I believe its corrupt and I don't know hot to fix it. Every time I start up my computer, my Windows is showing in a different font which is illegible. The font is all boxes, squares, exclamation marks, and arrows. My internet works fine and the fonts are normal but my Windows itself is messed up. I have a screen shot to explain my problem. Please help me solve this problem. Thank you everyone.

Well, off the top of my head, I don't know where in Windows you can choose the default font--probably wouldn't matter much because you can't read your files and folders to know what to click on anyway. But I'd try a System Restore and see if that takes care of it--if this started happening soon after installing a recent application, choose a restore point before the time of installation. Try starting the computer in Safe Mode--perhaps the normal Windows default font will be activated then, so you can see the correct things to click on. To startup in Safe Mode, press F8 while the computer is starting up. Hopefully that helps.
