Command Prompt Not Responding

I have an HP laptop with a Windows 7 32-bit Home Premium operating system. My command prompt doesn't run lots of commands like help, shutdown, ipconfig, ping, etc. I get a message like: 'help' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.Only simple commands like cd and dir are working. I noticed that whenever I navigate to c:/windows/system32, the command works. But I need to run some important commands like java on a file that is on the desktop and not in the system32 folder.How can I fix this?
Command Prompt Not Responding Update
You say that when you type set path in a command prompt the path also contains PATH=%systemroot%system32. If this is the case your%systemroot% does not get expanded to C:Windows (or other real Windows-directory) when starting cmd.exe.You can check your registry in HKEYLOCALMACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlSession ManagerEnvironment. All the names containing values with% characters (e.g. Windir, temp, path and comspec) should be of type REGEXPANDSZ (and not REGSZ) or the variable won't be expanded.You should also check HKEYCURRENTUSEREnvironment if path is of type REGEXPANDSZ. The path is now managed by Windows 7 and not the autoexec.bat or autoexec.nt files. To change the system environment variables, follow the below steps.From the desktop, right-click My Computer and click Properties.In the System Properties window, click on the Advanced tab.In the Advanced section, click the Environment Variables button.Finally, in the Environment Variables window (as shown below), highlight the Path variable in the Systems Variable section and click the Edit button. Add or modify the path lines with the paths you wish the computer to access.
Each different directory is separated with a semicolon as shown below.This is the default PATH environment variable setting on fresh install of Windows 7%SystemRoot%system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%System32Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%System32WindowsPowerShellv1.0.
