I not sure now to do it any more but this might help you along your way.

I seem to remember using ansi escape characters to change colors.

Not positive though.

Hope this helps.

Good News- There is an API associated with console apps which will allow you to set the text color. Bad news- I recently ran across this question on another board and I cannot recall where.
I would recommend a search of the boards on Codeproject.com and Codeguru as well as MSDN.
Once you identify the API calls, your dilemma will be solved.
