If it is ANSI, it must be a specific ANSI code page, and you'll need to determine which. However, Notepad++ might simply default to ANSI because it has no way of identifying the file's actual encoding. Are the characters shown as little boxes, or some other random characters? If boxes, maybe your font in Notepad++ can't display them.
