I am just getting started with Python and have installed v. 2.5.4 Idle version 1.2.4 I can't seem to get the idle to display text. It seems as if the install went fine. I start up the idle and the screen is blank. No text. It seems as if I can type on the screen but I just can't see the characters. I go to the config menu and it bombs and brings up the Visual Studio debugger. The computer that I am trying to install it on is a windows xp laptop serv pack 2. I have a workstation here that I am using also with the same os and the idle works fine. Any hints as to what might be interfering with the idle config.
