did you get that menu when you right-clicked on the .ttf file? thats what it looks like..

you have to go to START -> SETTINGS -> CONTROL PANEL -> FONTS and in that window go to FILE..

OR

just copy/move the .ttf file to you c:\WINDOWS\FONTS directory

how many fonts have you installed on your system? windows goes ga-ga when you have around 1000 installed...

try uninstalling whole bunch of them or better yet, move like 200-300 of them out of the windows/fonts directory to a different one and see if the "install new font" button will appear.

let me know what happens in any case

You Need To Set Some Attributes to you font folder
To Do this you need to click either Start>Run or Start>Programs>Accessories>MS Dos Prompt

After you do this type in

Attrib c:\windows\fonts +s +r

(The C:\Windows\fonts needs to be the path to your font folder)

This Will set Your font Folder to a System folder and a Read-only folder.

Then When you open the font folder and Click on FILE there should be a Install New font Option.

Download the attachment and Run FontFIX (Only Works if you Font Folder Path Is C:\Windows\Fonts)

Tell me if this helps you.....
