I would guess that you are using the Swedish keyboard, which is not
supported by Emacs right now.  According to my references, `_' is one
of the keys whoich have different scancodes on non-US keyboards.

Try evaluating the following expression, and see if that helps:

    (msdos-set-keyboard 45 nil)

(One way of ``evaluating'' this is to type it into a buffer, then
position the cursor at the right end and press `C-x C-e'.)

The above sets up Emacs to use Danish keyboard, but it should be close
to the Swedish one, and the `_' key is in the same place on both of
them.

If you are really interested in adding support for the Swedish keyboard, 
email me (it will require a source change).
