It sounds as though your path change didn't "take".  Remember that if 
you make the change from the control panel, it only applies to shell 
windows opened after the change, and if you make the change in a shell 
window, it only applies to that window.  What I do is to have a little 
command I can execute in a shell window to set the path appropriately 
(but I'm not using the Windows CMD, I use Cygwin bash, so the details 
probably wouldn't work for you).

But be aware that you'll need more changes to the path to be able to do 
a check than just adding one thing:  see the "Windows toolset" appendix 
to the Installation and Administration manual.
