Edit the Registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows NT \ CurrentVersion \ GRE_Initialize. You'll find entries for fixed, system and OEM fonts, and can change these to any font from the .FON files in the \WINNT\SYSTEM directory. These will take effect after you reboot the system.
