Problems using L3PAO on windows XP

As far as I can see, there simply isn’t an autoexec.bat file on windows XP - so I can’t follow Lars’ instructions to tell the computer where to always look for L3p and Ldrawdir...
So basically when L3PAO calls L3P, windows don’t know where it is, there seem to be a similar problem with the Ldrawdir-setting as well (according to the message in the POV ray file below):

Hope somebody can help, it’s beginning to get pretty annoying not being able to render stuff :(

Cheers NB

Wait a sec... from the pov-file it looks like L3PAO actually call l3p directly, so I guess it's the path for LDRAWDIR that's wrong Anyways, don't start nitpicking about the file names - for some odd reason lugnet just want to hide the backward (...) (18 years ago, 1-Aug-06, to lugnet.cad, FTX)
