YAP problems (perhaps OT)



Hello All:

I did not find a separate newsgroup for miktex, so I am posting my
query here. I uninstalled and re-installed Miktex 2.4 (the stable
build) by downloading the package from indian.cse.msu.edu mirror.

Unfortunately, YAP is not loading cmss files. I get an error of the
following sort:

------------
Making PK font:
C:\texmf\miktex\bin\makepk.exe --verbose cmr10 657 600 magstep(0.5)
ljfour
Trying to make PK font "cmr10" (at 657 DPI)...

Loading 'cmr10' instead.
'cmr10' not loadable either!
------------------------

I tested it on many documents. The english fonts are not loading
properly. Any help will be appreciated. (I am on WinXP).

Best regards,
