Can you paste the contents of your ctrl/attr.ini and text.ini files here so I can see what you have?

Also, if you could run the following command, as sysop, from the Terminal Server (default command shell works best):

        ;eval console.color_list

and paste the output of that here, that'd be helpful as well.
