Answer 1

There are a number of things you must check:

• Make sure your console is using Code Page 437
• Failing that, make sure your program's locale is the default "C" locale.

Let us know if it still doesn't work.

Answer 2

Check the checkbox in Properties that says "Use the old console" or something like that (Mine was in swedish). That solved the problem for me.
