When I said that "Google is your friend," I was suggesting you try searching for some published help regarding ANSI.SYS and Windows. DOS and Windows 95 work differently from Windows 2000. I don't know Windows XP differences because I don't use Microsoft products these days.

This link, listed on the first google results page, appears useful. http://is-it-true.org/nt/utips/utips181.shtml
