My guess is that you either don't have the program make.exe or it is not in 
your search path. If you do not have make.exe anywhere, you can probably find 
it in the unix utils package (unxutils.sourceforge.net). You can then set the 
system path to point to the directory where make.exe is located. The 
following is shamelessly stolen from 

http://www.mathworks.com/support/solutions/data/6964.shtml:

(Setting the system path in Windows 2000, XP:)
**********************************
1. Right-clicking on the My Computer icon. (Under Windows XP, the My Computer 
Icon may be located in the start menu.) 

2. Choosing Properties from the context menu. 

3. Double-clicking on the System icon. 

4. Clicking the Advanced tab. 

5. Clicking the Environment Variables button. 
)

6. Do not forget to add the directory to the path. Possibly you need to click 
apply or OK.

Alternatively, you can copy make.exe into directory c:\WINNT or 
c:\WINNT\SYSTEM32, this usually does the trick as well.
