Just something to try...

Tools|Customize|Options tab
uncheck the "List font names in their font" checkbox.

Each time I attempt to change the font in Excel the system locks up, and I
have to reboot the computer. The computer is running Windows 98SE and Office
2000 with latest service packs and updates. This problem only occurs in
Excel, changing fonts in other Office apps works fine. I have reinstalled
Excel and reinstalled the fonts but the problem still occurs.
