Icelandic Characters in WIN2K command prompt

Hi. I just installed WIN2K on my mothers machine. The thing is that she uses a very old dos-program that uses Icelandic chatacters. But WIN2K command prompt doesn't support these characters at the moment and I have no idea how to configure the command prompt to do so. This program ran properly undin Win98 dos prompt and it is vital that I get it to work with win2k. Thanks in advance.
