Sound like your path is messed up.. Let's verify..

Open a CMD prompt.

First try simple commands:

SET
<ENTER>

DIR
<ENTER>

Then Type this in:
%SystemRoot%\system32\ping.exe
<ENTER>

Whether or not that works, then try this:

CD %SystemRoot%
<ENTER>

CD System32
<ENTER>

PING
<ENTER>

If those work - come back and let us know - then maybe we can fix your
pathing.
