XP = NT so you do it through the My Computer Properties page
One of the tabs has an Environment Variables button that allows
you to set env vars per user or globally.
Add the values you need there.
The alternative(and not recommended route) is to edit the file
AUTOEXEC.NT which will be read when executing a DOS box...
But if you do it via the dialogue you shouldn't need autoexec.
