First you might want to find out why it's missing, since the Arial font is a system file, not a SimPe file. If you have actual Windows discs, you can find Arial.ttf somewhere on there and copy it into the Windows Fonts directory.  Exactly where it is depends on which version of Windows you have. You might also be able to get it from Microsoft.
