I think that this is a red herring concerning you problem, all the 
ansi.sys file does is tells the computer to display the text in SIOCONS	
correctly/in the correct colour. If this driver was not loaded the 
text would be surrounded by Ascii escape characters.

And yes you should be able to substitute the
devicehigh=c:\windows\ansi.sys
with devicehigh=c:\dos\ansi.sys.

I hope this has resolved this minor point for you at least,
