Is the entry in autoexec.bat like:
set LDRAWDIR =D:\Ldraw
or is it
set LDRAWDIR=D:\Ldraw
?
It should be more like the second entry. In particular, avoid spaces
around the equal sign, and be sure there's a backslash after the D:.

Did you reboot after making the change to autoexec? That's a requirement.
Does l3p give you an error message at the end of its output:
*** Cannot find model file 'filename.dat'.
? If it does, there's probably a path problem. Otherwise, the problem
lies elsewhere.
The POV file will be in the current directory.
