    Windows xp open fonts in control panel
    Click file from pull down menu then select install new font
    Browse the location by clicking drives and then the folder where the fonts you want are located. If fonts are present at the selected location they will appear in the list of fonts, select 1 or hold the clr to choose more then one then hit ok.
    Straight copying to windows\fonts works but only if fonts are not in use.
