You are correct - this has everything to do with ANSI.SYS. My guess is
that it isn't being loaded and thus the ANSI escape sequences aren't being
interpreted. I don't recall if WinME even looks at CONFIG.SYS, but just to
be safe, check your C:\CONFIG.SYS for any mention of ANSI.SYS. If it's not
there, create it. If there is no mention of the file, then add a line
"DEVICE=<path to ANSI.SYS>"
Windows Millenium Edition does not support that feature by design.

Some other versions do, it just depends on your version for how you may
accomplish this.
However, I routinely use ansi.com, which PC Magazine offers for download
(it appears this requires free registration now)
