Not sure if this will help, but you should have them where the rest of your system fonts are. PhotoShop on a PC should read TT fonts.
You can open the font (double click on it, then minimize it on a PC) and it will be available to all programs you open after that, but that's not very useful for when you want to use a lot of fonts.
Adobe has a font manager that allows you to keep them in different folders and still use them in graphics apps.
If noone of those things work, try reinstalling the fonts or if you use a Mac, ask a Mac person for help.

Thats odd because I have a crap load of fonts but only a very few are avaliable in Photshop 4.0 . That might make sense if they must be TT. I'll try.

If you have a lot of fonts, i.e. more than 500, you might have a different issue. Adobe has a font type manager that you may be able use to moderate the fontage.
