Type cursor covers several lines of text. Photoshop CS6

In Photoshop CS6 the flashing type cursor cuts through several lines of text (see image).

This makes it hard to select text since it is hard to tell which line the cursor will select (see image).

Can the text cursor be resized?  This happens no matter what type size is used or what paragraph settings are selected.  Is anyone else experiencing this problem?  I am using Windows 7 professional, service pack 1 on a Dell Precision T3500 with 8.0 GB RAM.

Yes, the problem is Cambria. I've included a link in post 4 with the details. You'll have to find a similar font.

I think it is not an issue with the certain fonts!
I just use the general fonts such like Arial, Arial Black, American Typewriter... and my photoshop is the latest version.
If there is any solution for this pleas let me know.
Thanks!
