Octave can't run on Windows 2000!

[wz-i-like-linux]

Hello, everybody

    I downloaded the installation package: octave-windows-2000oct25d.exe. It 
says "Successful" when I install it under windows 2000. But, when I tried to 
lauch it, it failed. When I run octave.bat, it display:

    >>bash.exe: warning: could not find /tmp, please create!
    >>start: start: No such file or directory

    even when I add "set tmp=...." to the environment variables and restart my 
windows, it displays such errors.

    I don't know what's the problem with the windows version of octave. It 
seems that it can't run anyway. Can anyone help me?

    Thanks a lot.
