Default Broken and Missing Text

This is becoming a pain,every time I load up Limewire Pro,I keep getting broken text,java is updated by the way.
I`ve also tried uninstalling & reinstalling.
Most of the text goes missing,even in the search,but also in the options ,and help etc.
I`m running the latest version 4.10.
Anyone else had this problem??.

Which skin are you using? Try changing the skin (go to LW menu bar, View>Change Skin.)

Apparently a few people using FrostWire were suffering the same issue. See http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...hlight=skin%2A

I knew it!.. I am running SLI... and guess what? I have the same problem. I can't find any info that helps. Not many people appear to be having this problem. It all makes sense now since not many run sli. I have tried several versions of limewire / java / nvidia drivers.. same thing.. ONLY limewire does this...

To state again what others have said.. the text is busted.. either it's not there or it's only partially there. All text including the menus. Skins do not make any difference... it appears to be a sli/driver/java issue.. sucks cuz limewire kicks *** but I can't see a damn thing.

Default broken text

If you have 2 video cards and run in SLI mode the text is garbled and broken. I went to nvidia settings and disabled SLI and Limewire worked fine.
