Menu Text - Can't see em'

I'm sure this problem has been asked before, but when I try to bring up past topics on your forums they are blank.
I can't see any of the menu text, huge pain in the butt because I'm trying to tweak the video settings / inputs controls on TF2. Seeing what server I can join would be nice too... :P
I got the chat working with advice from so other topic.

Urmm..
Black Macbook, 2 gigs of ram and I'm using the most up to date crossover app.

There is a bug with Team Fortress 2 (and other new Source engine games, like HL2: Ep2 and Portal). There's a hack in CrossOver to work around this bug. To enable the hack, there's a special registry key. CrossOver should have set it for you automatically, but if it failed to, here are the details:


Key: [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\AppDefaults\hl2.exe\Direct3D]
Name: tf2_alpha_hack
String value: -game tf;-game ep2;-game portal

You can run the registry editor using Programs -> Run Command, select the bottle and type "regedit" for the command.
