My buildslave is installed in c:\buildslave\

I wanted the latest version, so I installed it from source but I'm using 
python-twisted etc. from fedora-extras.

Do you have any spaces in your path? If you do, try putting quotes 
around the command. (c:\documents and settings\buildslave\ would become 
"c:\documents and settings\buildslave").

Does the directory from which you are trying to call "echo hello" exist?

Can you post the complete addStep lines from your master.cfg?
