That's very strange. Is it possible you have accidentally modified your
PATH environment variable so that it no longer contains the path to
cmd.exe? What does
echo %PATH%
say? (Run straight after you get the error message above).
Also, in case its useful information, did you compile yourself or which
binary version did you use (download location?)

Paul:
echo %PATH% says:
C:\msys\1.0\bin;C:\Perl\bin;
I think that's the problem then. You need to *add* those directories to
the PATH, not *replace* the PATH with them. The correct command should
probably be something like
set PATH=C:\msys\1.0\bin;C:\Perl\bin;%PATH%
which I have set in the grass63.bat file. When I type cmd.exe at the command
prompt or just put only 'cmd.exe' inside a cmd.bat file, the Windows Shell
starts fine. Even adding '%windir%\system32\cmd.exe' to PATH environmental
variable leaves the error message unchanged.
PATH should contain only directories; directly adding the path to a file
(cmd.exe in your example) won't work. Adding %windir%\system32 might work.
I'm not sure on the problem with the PNG driver.
