Your autoexec.bat file should have this line in it:
        @attrib +s c:\windows\fonts
This sets the system attribute that makes the fonts directory 
work the way it is supposed to.  This line is put in there
when you install Windows in Win4Lin. Perhaps it got deleted
somehow.

You can set these attributes, but they only are effective
durring the session.  When you exit your session only the
attributes that have an equivalent in the Linux filesystem
are saved.
